Description
Summary:Surgical excision of neoplasms usually requires a large incision with safety margin, resulting in large cutaneous defects. Skin flaps permit closure of extensive cutaneous defects that would not be closed directly. The rhomboid cutaneous flap can be used in places of the body where a rhomboid defect with internal angles of 60 and 120 degrees can be made. The aim of this paper is to report the her use for reconstruction of the defect created after resection of a tumor on dogs 'face. Total removal of the tumor and a safety margin was performed, and then the surgical defect was reconstructed with a rhomboid cutaneous flap. The final result was satisfactory, with an esthetically and functional acceptable scar, a without deformities to the oral commissure or eye. The cutaneous flap was considered a viable alternative for reconstruction of large surgical defects, of relatively simple execution and good functional and cosmetic results. Key words: rhomboid, diamond, lozenge, plasty. Remocao cirurgica de neoplasias geralmente exige uma excisao ampla com margem de seguranga, o que resulta em grandes defeitos cutaneos. Retalhos cutaneos propiciam a possibilidade de fechar defeitos de pele extensos que nao seriam fechados por sutura direta. O retalho cutaneo romboide pode ser usado em locais do corpo onde seja posswel a criacao de defeito romboide com angulos internos de 60 e 120 graus. Neste trabalho, relata-se a utilizacao do referido retalho cutaneo para reconstrucao de um defeito cirurgico gerado apos resseccao de tumor em face de cao. Foi realizada a excisao total do tumor com margem de seguranga, seguida pela reconstrucao do defeito resultante com retalho cutaneo romboide. O resultadofinal obtido foi satisfatorio, com formacao de uma cicatriz esteticamente aceitavel e funcional, sem deformidades da comissura labial ou do olho. O retalho mostrou-se como uma alternativa viavel para reconstrucao de grandes defeitos cirurgicos, de simples execucao e com bons resultados funcionais e cosmeticos.
