Abstract

Skin mixed tumors are extremely rare clinically, lack characteristic manifestations, and are easily confused with other diseases. An Asian male came to our hospital's cosmetic and plastic surgery department because of a skin mass on the right side of his nose. After unanimous discussion by our doctors, the patient underwent subcutaneous tumor resection under local anesthesia and rotational flap transplantation to treat the disease and improve the shape of the nose. The surgery was a success. The patient was checked regularly, and the sutures were removed 1 week later. The patient's wound was normal after suture removal. During the 5-month follow-up, the patient's right nose showed no recurrence, the appearance was normal, and the scar was not obvious. The patient was satisfied.
