We present a </span><span>87-year-old patient, with a large dimension squamous cell carcinoma, 3x2cm in the dorsum and the root of the nose. The surgical defect had a triangular shape. The realization of a flap conditioned a great movement of tissue and time- </span><span>-consuming surgery. Due to the patient co-morbidities, was performed a total skin graft, with the skin of the glabella. The </span><span>glabella is a good resource to perform grafts in this area, with good cosmetic quality, minimizing technical difficulties </span><span>and complications of more invasive procedures.</span></p><p><span><span><strong>KEYWORDS</strong> – </span><span>Nose; Reconstructive surgical procedures; Skin transplantation; Surgical flaps. </span><br /></span></p&gt;}, number={3}, journal={Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology}, author={Pacheco, David and Garcia, Carlos and Travassos, Ana Rita and Filipe, Paulo and Marques, Manuel Sacramento}, year={2013}, month={Jan.}, pages={341} }
