Versatility of expanded forehead flaps for facial reconstruction. Case report.

Forehead flaps, sometimes with tissue expansion, are usually used for nasal reconstruction because of the severe aesthetic morbidity of the donor area. In this paper we describe six patients who had facial soft-tissue defects that were repaired by versatile design of the expanded forehead flaps and minimal donor morbidity. The results indicate that forehead tissue expansion can provide ample, thin, well-vascularised, and colour-matched flaps for facial reconstruction. Versatile design of the expanded forehead flap can reduce the donor morbidity to a minimum without a visible unsightly scar.
