title: [The covering of radionecrosis in plastic surgery. Apropos of a series of 20 cases].
abstract: Twenty radionecroses with various locations were operated on between 1982 and 1993 in the Plastic Surgery Department at Strasbourg. Flap covers were performed. The results and indications as a function of localization and of the size and quality of the structures involved was analyzed for these radio-induced lesions. A wide range of therapeutic option are available to the plastic surgeon who must chose the most reliable reconstruction technique after the most extensive exeresis possible. Muscle and pediculated musculo-cutaneous flaps are preferred due to their safety, their vascular, trophic and anti-infectious quality and their excellent capacity of coverage.
