Abstract
The cheek is the largest anatomical unit of the face. In this area, surgical skin
cancer treatment must aim for its complete eradication and the best
aesthetic-functional result. A 69-year-old woman presented with a 3.5 cm tumor
in the left cheek for three years. Biopsy showed moderately diferentiated
squamous cell carcinoma. We performed an A-T flap, where the surgical defect
corresponded to the “A” and the junction of the inferior orbital, nasofacial,
and nasolabial grooves, to the top of the “T”. The patient evolved without
recurrence and had an excellent aesthetic-functional aspect.
