AbstractMultiple defects are often encountered in the treatment of malignant skin tumors. Nearby defects can present a reconstructive challenge since the closure of one defect may impact the closure of the other defect. The double O to Z flap design is ideally suited to combine the closure of adjacent defects into one technique. This flap technique and design is illustrated and described. Examples include defects on the forehead, temple, cheek, and nose following Mohs micrographic surgery.
