• Abstract:

  This report presents a case of basal cell carcinoma in the nasopalpebral region of a 65- year-old man, treated with surgery at the Federal Hospital of Rio de Janeiro in 2025. The patient had lesions on the lateral wall of the nose and on the lower eyelid, which were removed with free margins after biopsy. Different surgical flaps were used to reconstruct the affected areas, including the Imre flap on the eyelid and a rotation flap for the nose. The surgery was successful.
  successful, resulting in satisfactory aesthetic and functional healing, demonstrating the importance of an individualized assessment in the choice of reconstruction technique. The study reinforces that nasal and eyelid
  reconstruction after tumor removal requires specific techniques adapted to each case, with the Imre flap being an effective option for the lower eyelid.
