“…Multiple partial excisions of wide defects were first advocated by Morestin,[4] Davis[5] and Sisrunk[6] about 90 years ago. In today's world of demand for quick fixes, the procedure of serial excisions with its need for time, multiple surgeries and additional costs has obvious disadvantages over single stage surgeries.…”

Background:In the best of hands, the ultimate surgical scar of an otherwise well-performed surgery is unpredictable, and surgical techniques are constantly evolving to prevent or revise large scars. The present series uses the principles of serial excision to reduce the eventual scar length.Materials and Methods:Between January 1991 and December 2010, 30 patients were operated upon. In the first stage, a lesion was reduced in two dimensions with the intent to create a smaller lesion with the long axis favourably placed. The residual lesion was then excised after 4 weeks or more.Results:The resultant scars were smaller and better aligned, with an excellent skin match.Conclusion:A well-planned serial excision in a biaxial manner helps reduce the final scar.

The origins of wound care date back to ancient civilizations. From boiling oil to honey to wine, healers and caregivers have adopted a fascinating array of items to cleanse, dress, and bandage wounds over the ages. While wound care practices have developed over time, the physicians and surgeons of ancient times and the Middle Ages helped build the foundation for present-day wound care. A modern scientific understanding of these treatments illustrates why practitioners abandoned some practices while others remain in use today.

“…More posteriorly based flaps have also been widely used. These include the epaulette flap described by Mutter (1843) and later by Davis (1919) and the mastoid-occiput flap (Zovickian 1957). Filatov (1917) raised a tubed pedicle flap from the sterno-mastoid region.…”

Summary. The arterial supply of cervical skin originating from the thyro-cervical trunk has been investigated in detail by dissection and intra-arterial dye studies in 15 preserved and 22 fresh cadavers.The significance of axial skin flaps is discussed with particular reference to an axial skin vessel in the supra-clavicular fossa, not previously described.
