title: [New method of plastic in surgery for skin melanoma localized near body's midline].
abstract: With a wide excision of skin melanoma localized in areas of the sternum, the sacrum or on the back near body's midline there is often occurred a problem of closing appeared defect. Local tissues are insufficient and performing of free plastic is undesirable because of the unfavorable conditions of the free flap engraftment due to the peculiarities of transplant bed and difficulties of immobilization and fixation of the flap. For exactly such surgical situations we have developed a method of reliable replacement of appeared defects by two adjacent symmetrical rotary flaps.
