Eight cases with deep injuries as a result of electric contact burn were repaired with 8 pedicled thin skin flap successfully. The area of pedicled thin skin flap was from 6cm x 4cm to 12cm x 3cm. The pedicles of the flap were divided on 7-10 postoperative days after clamp training of the pedicles, and all the flaps survived. The cosmetic and functional results were all satisfactory. The operative method is described, and the mechanism of skin flap survival is discussed.
