Surgical technique error: insufficient mobilization of the displacement flap, inappropriate surgical method (better: rotational displacement flap from lateral with perial area defect or preauricular full skin transplantation).
Close-flap plasty, faulty. Fig. 2 a: Bowen's carcinoma on the back of the hand of a 67-year-old man.
Suture flap plasty, faulty. fig. 2 b: preparation of a rotational flap from proximal. note: no vascular occlusion in the proximal flap area necessary (unfavourable perfusion situation!).

Suture flap plasty, faulty. Fig. 2 d: After 8 days of postoperative flap tip and edge necrosis. Surgical error: faulty flap planning. In this area of unfavorable vascularization, the flap should have been cut from the distal and not the proximal skin area.
