We previously reported cases of anterior-neck reconstruction using super-thin and perforator-supercharged skin-pedicled flaps harvested from the pectoral area and back. Here, we reconstructed a neck-scar contracture with a long skin-pedicled flap from the pectoral area that survived without congestion despite not being supercharged with a perforator, as planned. The patient, a 67-year-old man, was admitted to our hospital due to neck-scar contracture after a chemical burn 3 years previously. During surgery, the scar was resected above the platysma. A large, 19 × 6-cm skin-pedicled flap was elevated from the left pectoral area. We planned to supercharge the flap by anastomosing the second intercostal perforator to the flap periphery but could not confirm the perforator intraoperatively. To promote flap survival, we did not elevate the flap pedicle more than absolutely necessary and then manipulated the flap very carefully. The flap survived fully and the contracture was effectively released. Thin flaps are useful for reconstructing exposed areas such as the face, neck, and dorsum of the hands that require good outcomes in terms of both function and aesthetics. However, if the flap is too large, ischemia/congestion could arise in the periphery unless the blood flow is stabilized by attaching a perforator. In our case, supercharging was not possible and we had to resort to careful intraoperative maneuvers to ensure flap survival. This approach was successful and suggests that although supercharging of thin and large flaps is preferred, unexpectedly unsuperchargeable flaps can be rescued by careful and finely tuned surgical judgment and techniques.
