Freestyle-Like V-Y Flaps of the Eyebrow: A New Outlook and Indication of an Historical Technique
Figure 3
a 78-year-old male underwent squamous cell carcinoma tumor removal from the medial region of the left eyebrow. Histology showed tumor infiltrations in the margins so wide excision was planned (a). A 3 cm wide defect was produced, and a freestyle-like V-Y advancement flap was used to close the defect (b, c). Cosmetic appearance was considered satisfactory at follow up 3-year postoperatively (d).
