This document discusses the management of various skin lesions and defects. It provides information on diagnosing and treating common benign and malignant skin lesions such as basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma. It also reviews options for reconstructing skin defects created by wide excision of malignant lesions, including the use of skin grafts versus flaps. Flaps are preferred when there is poor vascularity or reconstruction of facial structures is needed. The document concludes by discussing a case of excising a squamous cell carcinoma of the lower lip and reconstructing the defect using a free anterolateral thigh-tensor fasciae latae flap.
