title: [Surgery of burn sequelae on the scalp].
abstract: Surgical treatment of scalp burn sequelae has achieved a decisive step with the use of tissue expansion. First, authors propose a brief recap on anatomy, physiopathology and usual surgical processes. Then they describe in details the tissue expansion and present some experimental results. As a conclusion, they discuss the learning curve associated with such a process.
