ABSTRACT
Reconstruction of scalp defect can call upon several surgical techniques. Direct joining is used whenever possible, but because of the low laxity of the scalp, other approaches are often required. Several types of autoclosing flaps of the scalp have been described in the literature. In this article, we report the advantages of the island flap pedicled on the superficial temporal fascia, as described by Onishi (2005) in a case report for the reconstruction of an anterior scalp defect.
