Boonpadhar.apong T A totally avulsed scalp was treated successfully by microvascular replantation in 1975(1).
Since then, scalp replantation has become the treatment of choice in scalp injuries and should
always be considered even in cases of severe damage or prolonged ischemic time. Usually, every
attempt is made to establish as many vascular anastomoses as possible. We report one case of
total scalp avulsion with a 24-hour ischemic time, which was successfully replanted
via
one arterial
and one venous anastomose.
Key word
: Replantation, Scalp
