How we do it: Songket suture technique for lying half cone dog ear

Dog ear deformities in wound closure can lead to cosmetic concerns and discomfort for patients, particularly when there is unequal wound length, resulting in lying half cone-type dog ears. Managing these deformities involves aligning the longer side with the shorter side without extending the wound. The Songket suture technique, implemented in a two-stage process, has shown effectiveness in addressing this issue, especially in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy with a crescent incision that we have presented.
