ABSTRACT: Superior sternal cleft is a rare congenital malformation that may represent a challenge for plastic surgeons. We describe a 1-day-old neonate. She was noted to have superior sternal cleft associated with aplasia cutis ahead the sternum. Three days after birth, she successfully underwent primary repair using a Medpor and a rectus abdominis musculocutaneous flap. This is a novel concept of successfully constructing the sternal cleft associated with aplasia cutis. |
