The technique and results of a new scalp flap that solves frontal baldness are described. As a bipediculate flap it offers a great amount of hair when advanced and has a low rate of complications. This kind of flap has been used by us for four years in 36 patients in the age group between 20 and 60 years. The results obtained with the flap have been very satisfactory.

Treatment of male baldness.

Indications for surgical treatment of male baldness are usually related to the capability and experience of the surgeon. Based on the technique of the one-stage vertical flap described at the VIIIth International Congress of Plastic Surgery (Montreal 1983), we propose a system for management of the different types of baldness. Flaps, bald scalp resections, and punch grafts are used, depending on the extent and the topography of the baldness.

Plasminogen activators are serine proteinases which transform the serum zymogen, plasminogen, into plasmin, a broad-spectrum protease with fibrinolytic effect. Two main plasminogen activators have been described in humans: urokinase (UK; molecular weight, 55,000) and tissue-type plasminogen activator (tPA; molecular weight, 74,000). Thirteen subjects were studied who had alopecia areata (AA), nine in the active phase and four in remission. There were alterations in the perivascular and peribulbar fibrinolytic activity in the nine subjects in the active phase of disease, suggesting a possible role of plasminogen activators in AA. A modified Todd's autohistographic method was used to evaluate cutaneous fibrinolytic activity (which depended on the activity of plasminogen activators) in the 13 AA subjects and five volunteer controls. Cutaneous fibrinolytic activity was reduced in perivascular areas, but increased in peribulbar areas, in the nine subjects in the active phase of disease. Tests with monoclonal antibodies directed against the catalytic sites of tPA and UK showed that the perivascular fibrinolytic activity was tPA dependent, and the peribulbar fibrinolytic activity was UK dependent.
