An alternative single-stage application of the paramedian forehead flap in reconstruction of the face

The authors describe a refinement of the original technique to be reserved for cases where vessels could be identified by Doppler, consisting in the direct visualization and dissection of the initial tract of the vascular pedicle, thus providing an extremely mobile pedicle whose size allows to locate the first part of the pedicle in the nasion, tunneling under a skin bridge between the emergence of the vessels and the defect.
