This article describes the successful use of parieto‐occipital flap operations for hereditary or traumatic baldness but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a dual transposition flap technique for closing large scalp defects post-Mohs surgery, achieving minimal alopecia and scar visibility, though it is based on a single patient.

This article reviews scalp flap surgery for hair restoration, emphasizing its ability to provide immediate and natural hair coverage compared to traditional hair transplantation, and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses surgical treatments for male pattern hair loss in black individuals, emphasizing the need for technique adjustments due to specific characteristics of black skin and hair, but reports no new clinical results.

This article offers no new findings and lacks an abstract.

Flap surgery is effective for treating male baldness, offering immediate results with dense hair growth.

This study found that minoxidil pretreatment in rat skin flaps enhanced angiogenesis and increased flap survival compared to untreated flaps, but was less effective at reducing necrosis than surgical delay.

This report describes successful scalp resurfacing using serial tissue expansion with a tissue expander in two patients with large lesions, suggesting this method can effectively treat extensive hairless scalp areas.

This study demonstrates that encapsulating cell-free fat extract in a gelatin methacrylate hydrogel enhances flap repair by sustaining angiogenesis, reducing oxidative stress, and offering favorable biocompatibility in a murine skin flap model, thereby advancing potential clinical flap necrosis treatments.

This study found that local heterologous leukocyte-rich platelet-rich plasma improved distal skin flap viability in rats by reducing necrosis compared to the control group.

This case report describes a flap advancement technique following skin expansion as a successful method to address primary essential cutis verticis gyrata, preserving hair growth and improving cosmetic outcomes.

In this case report, the authors described how a 27-year-old male developed scarring and penile shortening after a previous lengthening procedure, which was successfully repaired using a pedicled superficial circumflex iliac artery perforator flap combined with a novel hybrid technique.

This study found that topical minoxidil can be effective in preventing flap necrosis during latissimus dorsi flap reconstruction in patients who have undergone neoadjuvant chemoradiation.

This article reviews the current basic science of angiosome theory and flap delay, applying this knowledge to modern scalp flap procedures, without reporting any new clinical findings.

This study characterized the stress-strain properties of the human scalp and found that its stiffness increases significantly with load, providing valuable insights for planning scalp surgery procedures.

This article reviews the use of the Juri procedure for transferring hair to bald scalps, achieving satisfactory cosmetic results in all patients over two years, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article discusses scalp reconstruction techniques using rotation flaps, with no new clinical results reported.

This case report highlights the successful use of the Bardach modification of the curved tripod flap for repairing cicatricial pressure alopecia, offering a natural appearance and effective tension distribution in scalp reconstruction.

This study found that adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned media improved skin flap survival following ischemia/reperfusion injury in mice by increasing cell proliferation and the number of hair follicles, mediated by IL-6.

This study found that muscle-only free flaps for skull coverage were associated with serious complications, suggesting that composite or thicker muscle flaps may reduce these risks.

This study found that the "flying-wings" expanded scalp flap technique effectively restored hemiscalp defects in children following burns, achieving pleasing aesthetic results and proper hair growth direction with minimal complications.

In this study, researchers developed a new variant of the Mercedes flap with releasing incisions for reconstructing medium-sized scalp defects, demonstrating complete defect closure without complications in three patients following a single operation with excellent aesthetic outcomes.

In this study, azelaic acid 20% and finasteride increased BCL-2 protein expression and decreased bax protein expression in rats after skin flap surgery, suggesting a potential antiapoptotic role in reducing ischemia-induced damage.

This article explains that proliferating trichilemmal tumors, originating in the hair follicle, can exhibit low-grade malignant potential, and recommends wide excision to minimize recurrence risk, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article describes techniques for correcting cosmetic deformities caused by older hair flap surgeries, restoring a more natural appearance.

This study reports that the composite galeal frontalis pericranial flap can be successfully used for reconstruction in anterior cranial base surgery, effectively sealing cerebrospinal fluid leaks, while minimizing complications like numbness and skin necrosis.

The technique effectively repairs skin after tumor removal, maintaining appearance and function without complications.

This article discusses the temporo-parieto-occipital flap for scalp reconstruction and reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize its specific reconstructive indications.
