Popis: Animal bite injuries of the face and scalp region and their resulting defects may impose some intricate problems of reconstruction. Six representative cases of smaller and larger defects of the nose, lips and scalp are presented and pictorally illustrated. Attention is drawn to one case where a totally avulsed nose and upper lip was replanted by microsurgical means. The basic principles of treatment and alternate methods of reconstruction are discussed placing special emphasis on the late results obtained.
