The nasal region is often affected by cutaneous neoplasm, especially in individuals of low phototypes, where the incidence of basal cell carcinoma is high. Surgical defects in the nasal wing and perinasal region constitute a challenge to its reconstruction since it involves several cosmetic units and preservation of the nasal groove. The preservation of the limits between these units is thus fundamental for good functional and aesthetic results. This article aims to show the application of the Shark Island Flap for the correction of defects in the nasal and perinasal regions.
