Why Would a Mohs Surgeon Choose to Use a Skin Graft on the Nose when an Uncomplicated Flap is an Option?
dljinokMar 1, 2013
From all that I have read, it appears that flaps often produce a far superior aesthetic outcome when compared to using skin grafts. Why would a Mohs surgeon choose to use a skin graft for a small defect on the nasal sidewall when an uncomplicated flap is an option? Is it easier/quicker for the surgeon to accomplish the repair using a graft?
