Abstract
In this paper we report the technique of using an inverted-U parascapular flap for treating axillary scar contracture. The advantages of using this inverted-U flap are that it is possible to close the donor site by primary suturing, it is possible to cover a large skin defect, and it is possible to construct either a cavity or a swelling in the skin-defect region.Keywords
