Abstract
A useful technique for skin repair in medium-sized lumbar or lumbosacral myelomeningoceles is described. It consists in the displacement towards the midline of two lateral triangular flaps located on each side of the lesion. This technique has been used to cover skin defects in other regions of the body, but not in the lumbar region for myelomeningoceles. The results are encouraging.
