THE SUPRACLAVICULAR FLAP FOR RECONSTRUCTION OF POST-BURN MENTOSTERNAL CONTRACTURES
1970
Background
The thin and pliable skin of the neck is a region with multidirectional activity, and postburn scar contractures tend to form there easily. The supraclavicular flap is used to correct neck scar contractures. Its main vascular supply is the supraclavicular artery, and it can be harvested as either a skin pedicle flap or an island flap (vascular pedicle flap).
