Abstract
The Z-plasty and its variations are techniques commonly performed in plastic surgery. However, there are few descriptions and comparisons of the various types of Z-plasty. This article examines the mechanics of the Z-plasty and its variations. Understanding the geometry of the different variations will allow selection of the most appropriate Z-plasty for contracture release.Entities:
