title: Shark island pedicle flap for repairing of basal cell carcinoma localized in nasal ala-perialar region: a simple procedure.
abstract: Basal Cell Carcinoma is the most common skin cancer. We describe a single-staged technique for correction of nasal ala defect after the excision of a basal cell carcinoma. This technique allows correction of surgical defects of the ala rebuilding the original anatomy, maintaining cosmetic units, without need for a graft.
