| Abstract | The advent of tissue expansion started a new era of aesthetically reconstructed scalp alopecia by providing a large hair-bearing scalp area with acceptable hair density. However, residual scalp alopecia and wide visible scars still raised aesthetic problems. The hair follicle transplantation carries the possibility of producing a more natural scalp because both the desired hair density and the natural direction of the hair can be reproduced using this procedure. Our study group consisted of 62 patients (41 males and 21 females) with a mean age of 26.3 years. The median age of suffering a burn to the scalp was 3 years. The causes of burn resulting to scalp alopecia were flame (n = 28), scald (n = 18), contact (n = 7), and electrical (n = 9) injuries. The first reconstruction for all patients was the expanded flap coverage. Three patients used 2-stage expanded flaps. Five patients underwent hair follicle transplantation after they had undergone the expanded flap coverage. Expanders (n = 86) were placed in 62 patients with a total of 9 major (9.3%) and 3 minor (3.5%) complications. The overall results after expanded flap reconstruction and hair follicle transplantation were excellent (43 patients, 69.4%), good (18 patients, 29%), and bad (1 patient, 1.6%). Postburn scalp alopecia can be reconstructed by 1-stage or multiple-stage expanded flap procedures. The visible remaining alopecia and marginal scar after the procedure, especially on the anterior hairline of the forehead and the sideburns, can be refined by hair follicle transplantation. This report also suggests the possibility that cicatrical scalp alopecia with intact deep tissue can be restored by hair follicle transplantations using hair transplanter. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
