full-thickness scalp defects with exposed cranial bone or dura are usually performed with free flaps. However, certain medical conditions in fragile patients may contraindicate this type of surgery. In those circumstances, Dermal Regeneration Templates (DRTs) can provide an alternative solution to flap surgery. We here report the case of a 79-year old woman presenting with a large cranial defect and exposed dura mater after developing postsurgical Pyoderma Gangrenosum and subsequent free flap failure. A one-stage salvage reconstruction was successfully performed with MATRIDERM\u24c7\u00a0(MedSkin Solutions Dr. Suwelack AG, Germany) and a split-thickness skin graft (STSG) with a Vacuum-Assisted Closure (VAC) dressing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-485cfba elementor-align-center elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"485cfba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;wcf-animation&quot;:&quot;none&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/33319011\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Read Full Article<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ff4526a elementor-widget elementor-widget-wcf--blog--post--tags\" data-id=\"ff4526a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;wcf-animation&quot;:&quot;fade&quot;,&quot;delay&quot;:0.1499999999999999944488848768742172978818416595458984375,&quot;on-scroll&quot;:1,&quot;fade-from&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;data-duration&quot;:1.5,&quot;ease&quot;:&quot;power2.out&quot;,&quot;fade-offset&quot;:50}\" data-widget_type=\"wcf--blog--post--tags.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t        <div class=\"wcf--post-tags\">\r\n\t\t\t        <\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The use of MATRIDERM\u24c7 as a single stage salvage procedure to cover exposed dura Mater November 30, 2020 Abstract \u00a0 Reconstruction of large full-thickness scalp defects with exposed cranial bone or dura are usually performed with free flaps.
