    AbstractA case of gunshot wound of the brain associated with a scalp defect is presented. Repair of the scalp defect was primarily achieved by multiple rotation flaps. Successive complications occurred in the postoperative course related to wound breakdown and infection. The patient underwent a secondary reconstruction by a free forearm flap. Despite an infected recipient bed and poor general condition, the postoperative course was uneventful and the healing was complete within 1 month.
