ABSTRACT
Burow's graft, obtained from the excised Burow's triangle, is a sort of full-thickness skin graft and can provide outstanding results because the skin used is immediately adjacent to the defects. This procedure is a suitable reconstruction method of surgical defects which are too large for primary closure or within an anatomic subunit with insufficient skin elasticity. Reconstruction of the scalp is not simple owing to lack of elasticity, inflexibility, and hair-bearing feature. We report a case of large sized eccrine poroma on the scalp that was reconstructed with Burow's graft, producing an aesthetically satisfactory result.
