Linear closure for nasal defects after Mohs micrographic surgery.
Skin cancers on the nose are very common. Excision of these tumors results in surgical defects that can pose a challenge to repair. ⋯ A vertical or slightly vertical linear closure for nasal defects after Mohs micrographic surgery is a robust and reliable method to deliver excellent cosmetic and functional results. Linear closure should be considered for small and mid-sized cutaneous nasal defects whenever possible.
