Abstract

The proper planning of the initial scalp incision requires knowledge of superficial anatomy, the vascular supply awareness of functional considerations, extent of underlying pathology and thoughtful planning. In present case application of fundamental principles in the practice of plastic surgery i.e. modification of combined hairline and square scalp flap for evacuation of concurrent frontal contusion and parietal extradural hematoma was a simple and effective option to manage both the lesions simultaneously.
