Reconstruction of Tissue Defects Developing After Excision of Non-Melanoma Malignant Skin Tumors in Scalp and Forehead Regions.

Aim: The scalp and forehead are the anatomical regions where non-melanoma malignant skin tumors are commonly seen due to direct sun exposure. After surgery for non-melanoma malignant skin tumors located in the scalp and forehead, many complex defects can develop, ranging from sole skin defects to deep defects in which bone and dura mater are opened.

Material And Methods: This study examined 43 patients who presented to the Department of Plastic Surgery in Ankara Numune Training and Research Hospital and were diagnosed with non-melanoma malignant tumors of scalp and forehead between 2006 and 2013.

The intraneural hemangioma of the digital nerve: case report.

Intraneural Hemangioma of the digital nerve is rare and so far three cases have been reported in the literature. We present a case of 12- year- old boy with painless soft tissue mass in the right hand and numbness on the radial aspect of the index finger. Magnetic Resonance Imaging showed an isointense subcutaneous lesion without discrete borders in the first web space classically of hemangioma with the radial digital nerve extension.
