RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the clinical effect of Halo-vest head ring in the treatment of replantation of total scalp avulsion.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We treated 11 cases of total scalp avulsion with the anastomosis of arteriovenous vessels and Halo-vest head ring from December 2006 to February 2015.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>One patient's replanted scalp got necrosis because of serious contusion which was healed without hair growth after free skin graft and dressing.
