Area of Science:

  • Dermatologic Surgery
  • Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
  • Surgical Anatomy

Context:

  • Dermatologic epithelioma (skin cancer) of the face often requires surgical excision, leading to defects.
  • Reconstruction of facial defects is crucial for both functional and aesthetic outcomes.
  • Island flaps are a reconstructive technique used in plastic surgery.

Purpose:

  • To describe the surgical technique for using island flaps in 42 cases of facial skin cancer defects.
  • To illustrate the design, implementation, and anatomy of subcutaneous island flaps.
  • To share experience and provide a reference for reconstructive surgery after dermatologic oncology.

Summary:

  • The study details the application of 42 island flaps for reconstructing surgical defects resulting from facial dermatologic epithelioma.
