[Topographic study of the parietal region for the elaboration of revascularized cranium vault autograft].

Abstract

Objective: Topographic and blood vessel architecture study of the parietal area and distal regional pool of the superficial temporal artery (STA) to assess the possibility of revascularized cranium vault bone autograft formation.

Material and methods: For the topographic and anatomical study, 30 non-fixed corpses (17 male and 13 female) were selected, the average age of which was 59±5 years. In the anamnesis and catamnesis, there were no indications of trauma or other pathology of the head and neck, including vascular. STA was contrasted with a non-radiocontrast dye (brilliant green) with the introduction of the dye into the STA with preliminary ligation of the frontal branch of the STA. The area of blood supply to soft tissue and bone structures was studied. The angioarchitectonics of the parietal region was studied, the feeding vessel of the studied flap was identified.

Results: The obtained anatomical landmarks for the collection of CPFP flap make it possible to form a flap with high accuracy and minimize the morbidity of the donor area.
