This is similar to but different from a graft which does not have an intact blood supply and therefore relies on growth of blood vessels. This is done to fill a defect such as a wound resulting from injury or surgery when the remaining tissue is unable to support a graft or to rebuild more complex anatomic structures such as breast or jaw.In this book we have summarized briefly on various types techniques areas which are suitable for grafting. We have also dealt with merits and demerits of different types of flaps according to the method of harvesting and also with esthetic concern.
