Abstract

Introduction & Objective: During AXILLAry BURN SCAR release, using transposition flaps such as Z-plasty technique, problems such as tip necrosis and hair bearing skin transfer to visible areas of AXILLA were noticed. This led the authors to introduce a new technique; Multiple V-Y Advancement flaps (M-plasty).Materials & Methods: 12 patients underwent M-plasty and followed for 5 to 18 months. The results were evaluated by comparative measurements of the active range of shoulder abduction before and after operation.Results: Range of shoulder abduction before operation was 45º -90º and post operatively increased to 110o -180o. The mean percent of improvement was 48%. The amount of scar lengthening was satisfactory and no recurrence of the contracture was noted. Two patients developed hypertrophic scars on the incision line.Conclusions: The results of this study show that multiple V-Y advancement flaps (M-plasty) procedure, promises to be a good alternate technique in the treatment of AXILLAry contracture bands in terms of rate of elongation, prevention of flap tip necrosis and inhibition of hair bearing skin transfer to visible areas of AXILLA.
