Reconstruction of surgical defect of the dorsum of the hand
Abstract In some cases, keratoacanthomas can be indistinguishable from squamous cell carcinoma, making the gold standard treatment surgical excision with histopathological evaluation. The surgical defects created on the back of the hand can be challenging to repair. We describe the use of bilateral rotation flap as an option in this area, and discuss the indications and contraindications of some of the possible surgical techniques for reconstruction of the dorsum of the hand.
