title: Haemostatic property of cyanoacrylate in pedicled flaps.
abstract: We present a technique that can, in principle, be applied to any pedicled flap that is routinely used for reconstructions of the forehead. In our experience, cyanoacrylate glue applied to the pedicle before the flap is inserted decreases postoperative bleeding and wound exudate.
