The giant BCC is a rare variant, and the repair of large defects in the scalp, generated after oncologic resection, is a surgical challenge. We report the case of a patient submitted to late scalp reconstruction after oncologic resection of giant BCC in the scalp with the association of techniques. Reconstruction of scalp lesions depends on a comprehensive understanding of the anatomy of this site, knowledge of the arsenal of surgical techniques, and a detailed assessment of patient factors and expectations, given the impact on the quality of life and morbidity related to each therapeutic option.
