ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore the methods for repair of facial and cervical scars after burn.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and two patients with facial and cervical scars as a result of burn injury were repaired by unilateral or bilateral deltopectoral flaps after expansion with pedicles. First, facial scars were excised and contractures were released to restore eye, mouth and nose to normal anatomical position. The facial scar flaps were overturned to join with the pedicles of deltopectoral flap for closing the wounds. The residual wounds were repaired by delayed flaps without pedicles 3 weeks later.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Among 102 patients, the flaps survived well in 94 cases, and blood supply insufficiency was found in distal end of unilateral flap in 7 cases (depigmentation after primary healing ). Necrosis of unilateral flap occurred in one patient, and it healed after skin grafting.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Expanded deltopectoral flap is efficacious procedure for repair of massive cervical and facial scars.</p>
