Abstract

Introduction: Basal cell carcinoma represents the dermatological tumor that most frequently occurs on the face. According to statistics, approximately 85% of basal cell carcinomas are found on the face, of which 12.5% are located on the forehead. Basal cell carcinomas are found in the nasal area in 25%. All these problems represent a real challenge for the general surgeon who must have all the theoretical and practical knowledge of the facial region. Objectives: To identify the different facial reconstructive techniques with skin flaps after excision of basal cell carcinomas in patients of the General Guasmo Sur Hospital in the period 2017-2019. Methodology: The medical records of patients admitted with basal cell carcinoma who had been hospitalized for plastic surgery in January 2017 to January 2019 were reviewed, to then collect the necessary clinical data and take them to a form of their own authorship. Finally, the results obtained will be analyzed and the data will be tabulated in a record sheet using Microsoft Office Excel 2010. Results: The reconstructive technique with nasolabial skin flap was the most used technique in the General Hospital Guasmo Sur, it was the technique with 31.42% from the patients. Conclusion: The surgical techniques with skin flaps that are most used in the Guasmo Sur Hospital were: nasogenian flap, bilobed flap, Limberg flap and Mustardé flap.
