Abstract
Thin skin grafts taken from the thigh or buttock take a long time to heal and leave permanent scars. A 10 year old female patient had a burn scar contracture on left upper thigh. Split thickness skin graft was harvested from the scalp and applied over the released scar surface. Epithelization of donor site began from the post operation 7th day. The scalp skin graft was well- taken without complications. The rapid healing time and hairs of the scalp provides less pain and no visible scar.
Key Words: Scalp, Donor site, Skin graft
