Scapulothoracic bursitis involves inflammation of the scapulothoracic bursa caused by overuse of the shoulder or traumatic injury. Conservative management is recommended initially, and a surgical approach, such as bursectomy or scapular angle resection, is indicated later. Scapulothoracic bursitis in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been rarely reported in the literature. A 34-year-old woman was hospitalized in our hospital for a palpable mass on the right side of her back. She had a history of SLE, which was diagnosed and treated with medication 13 years prior. Chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed fluid collection measuring 6.0 cm × 6.0 cm × 2.0 cm between the rib cage and subscapularis muscle. Histopathological examination identified the mass as bursitis with cystic degeneration. Surgical excision was performed at the infrascapular area. About 11 months later, the mass recurred in the same area. Surgical excision was again performed in the same way as before, and the same diagnosis was confirmed. Every 6 months, ultrasound examination is being conducted to assess for recurrence. The patient has not had any further complications or a relapse for the last 3 years. Prompt bursectomy can be a definitive and long-lasting treatment option for scapulothoracic bursitis accompanied by SLE.

Objective. To develop methods for obtaining enlarged flaps with their own vessels in the cervicothoracic region for the reconstruction of defects and deformities of the lower and middle parts of the face. Materials and methods. The results of treatment of 16 patients with facial defects and deformities were analysed. Nineteen flaps were used in the cervicothoracic region: lateral neck skin and muscle flaps with subcutaneous muscle (5), supraclavicular flaps (4), bilobed lateral neck skin and muscle flaps with supraclavicular flaps (6), and bilobed cervicothoracic flaps with supraclavicular flaps (4). Balloon expansion of 14 flaps was used to increase the amount of plastic material. Results. Complete engraftment of 13 (68.4% ± 2.3%) flaps was obtained, in 3 observations it was not possible to completely remove the scars, in 2 observations inflammation and sutures occurred, and in 1 observation necrosis of 20% of the cervical flap area occurred. Conclusions. The most promising for plastic surgery of facial defects and deformities are cervicothoracic, supraclavicular and lateral neck skin and muscle flaps. Using skin expansion methods, the amount of plastic material can be increased.

Anatomical studiesThe transverse cervical artery appears stable in anatomy, with a length ranging from 4.0 to 7.0 cm, and a mean diameter of 2.65 mm (1). The transverse cervical vein was present in 61 of 72 cadaveric specimens, with a length ranging from 4.0 to 7.0 cm, and a mean diameter of 2.90 mm (1). As early as the 1940 s, an anatomical atlas suggested that the superficial branch of the transverse cervical artery might supply blood to the skin near the clavicle (3). In 1979, Lamberty confirmed through anatomical and clinical research that the skin in the supraclavicular region was supplied by a stable cutaneous branch of the transverse cervical artery and that this skin could be made into an axial flap (3). He first referred to this flap as the "supraclavicular axial patterned flap" (3). However, early anatomical studies only found the
