Implication

Case report demonstrates tumor clearance and favorable cosmetic outcomes in nasal basal cell carcinoma, highlighting narrow-margin excision with secondary healing as a minimally invasive strategy.

Key Points

To assess lesion-tailored surgical strategies, including narrow-margin excision and secondary intention healing, for treating multiple synchronous nasal basal cell carcinomas.
Treated two synchronous, histopathologically confirmed nodular basal cell carcinomas on the nasal dorsum using individualized excision margins and reconstruction methods.
Excised the left nasal lesion with a 2-mm surgical margin and repaired it with a rotation flap, while resecting the smaller right lesion with a 0.5-mm margin and allowing healing by secondary intention.
Histopathological analysis confirmed negative surgical margins in both resected specimens.
Complete epithelialization of the secondary intention defect occurred within three weeks, while the rotation flap healed without complications.
Evaluation at six months postoperatively showed minimal scarring, favorable cosmetic preservation, and no evidence of tumor recurrence.
