case_images: The lesion over the right upper eyelid was excised preserving a margin of 1 mm at the lid margin [Figure 2a and b] and the skin cover was provided by a full-thickness skin graft obtained from right post-auricular region which was defatted and the dermis trimmed to reduce the bulkiness of the graft so that the cosmetic as well as functional outcome would be better [Figure 3a and b].
