Özet
Parry-Romberg syndrome is characterized by progressive hemifacial atrophy that is the lack of tissue (generally soft tissue and rarely bone and muscle) in the atrophic area of the face. The etiology and the incidence of this pathologic process are uncertain, but it is relatively rare and self-limited. The objective of this study is to present 21-year-old female patient with progressive hemifacial atriophy who was reconstructed with composite galeal frontalis flap. Although many reconstructive methods have been described, reconstruction of both eyebrow deficiency and forehead atrophy with composite galeal frontalis flap was not described before.
