Abstract
Total scalp avulsion is a rare injury that poses a unique reconstructive challenge. Microsurgical replantation is considered the first-line choice; yet anastomotic efforts may be strained to find suitable recipient and target vessels. Concomitant injuries may also delay or hinder operative intervention. These complex scenarios are difficult to navigate and necessitate multidisciplinary input to optimize outcomes. As such, the authors present an illustrative case report of a total scalp avulsion injury that underwent successful microsurgical replantation. This report highlights the novel use of loupe magnification in scalp replantation and reviews technical and clinical nuances that facilitate a favorable reconstruction.
