Abstract
Repair of scalp defects using a superficial temporal fascia pedicle VY advancement scalp flap, which is supplied by superficial temporal vessels, is reported. This method has been used in seven cases of scalp defects, and enables us to provide primary closure of the defects with hair-bearing scalp skin. This method is simple, easy, and reliable.
