Figure 1
Patient no. 2 showed in Table 1. (a) Basal cell carcinoma of the left nasal sidewall and dorsum marked for the excision; (b) 2.6 × 2.8 cm defect after tumor resection. Advancement cheek flap designed with inferior incision outlined in the nasofacial sulcus and melolabial crease and superior incision placed in the inferior bony orbital rim. (c) Flap elevated from the medial border in a subcutaneous plane. Green arrows indicate the placement of the two adsorbable anchor sutures. (d) Intraoperative final result.
