Objectives: To document the existence of aps for nasal coverage after oncological resection, obtaining excellent anatomical and aesthetic results. A retrospective study was carried out in a male Method: patient diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma in 2 nasal aesthetic units. Surgical treatment was performed (wide excision with safety margins of both lesions) + individualized coverage with transposition aps. A 58-year-o Results: ld man reported an erythematous, diffuse, shiny lesion at the level of the nasal tip and another similar lesion on the left nasal wing; after approximately 8 months, lesions increase in size and become delimited, with a bulging appearance. Incisional biopsy of both lesions reported basal cell carcinoma. On the part of the plastic surgery service, it was decided to perform a complete excision with safety margins, carrying out individualized coverage of each lesion, achieving surgical treatment in a single time, accelerating your recovery process and improving your aesthetic result. Basal cell carcinoma is a m Conclusion: alignant neoplasm that can cause deformities, disgurement, and/or loss of function of the affected organ. It occurs most often in protruding areas such as the nose. We have known that the only cure is to perform a complete excision of the lesion with safety margins both in extension and depth, which leaves coverage defects; and even more complicated in a protruding area of the face such as the nasal. All this entails for the patient the desire for treatment not only for curative purposes, but also to maintain their nasal aesthetics. It was decided to provide individualized coverage of the recurrent areas after tumor excision, obtaining an excellent anatomical and aesthetic result in an adequate period of time and in a single surgical time.
