Abstract

A 64-year male came for treatment of a lesion on his eyelid. Approximately 10 years earlier, he had developed a small blackish mass on his right lower eyelid, which was gradually increasing in size along the infra-orbital crease. It is associated with blackish discharge. Laboratory tests were normal; medical history and family history were unremarkable. Incisional biopsy shows strings of stratified squamous epithelium, proliferative basal cells, and scattered melanin pigmentation. The tumor was completely excised, and the defect is reconstructed with modified island pedicle advancement cheek flap and sent for HPE examination. It is a powerful technique for reconstruction with minimal complication.
