  • Title: Use of skin flaps in dermatologic surgery of the face.
    Author: Konz B.
    Journal: J Dermatol Surg; 1975 Oct; 1(3):25-30. PubMed ID: 770534.
    Abstract:
    Different flap techniques for plastic repair of defects are described, namely, local flaps (advancement, transposition and rotation flaps) and regional flaps. Such use of skin of similar structure and pigmentation gives excellent cosmetic results. The indications for using local or regional flaps depends on size and location of the defect. Total extirpation of cutaneous malignancy particularly by microscopically monitored serial excision is a prerequisite to reconstruction.
