title: Reconstruction for basal cell carcinoma in an anatomical region where the sun does not shine: an attractive option!
abstract: Basal cell carcinoma is one of the common skin malignancies but it is rarely found in sun-protected areas. The soft tissue reconstruction at the perianal region can be challenging and a variety of options are described in the literature. The keystone design perforator island flap is  an excellent and attractive option for soft tissue reconstruction. We present a case of perianal basal cell carcinoma that was reconstructed with a unilateral keystone flap.
