title: [Expansion of the facial integument in children].
abstract: In the light of four clinical cases of paediatric facial reconstruction, the authors discuss the advantages and indications of the cutaneous expansion technique which can be combined with other plastic surgery procedures to obtain an abundant skin with ideal texture and sensitivity and minimal scars. Operations for cicatricial alopecia, very extensive forehead naevus, preauricular tumour and nasal mutilation are described.
