Özet
Trichilemmal carcinoma (TLC) is a fairly uncommon cutaneous malignancy with a favorable prognosis in the majority of cases. The gold standard of treatment is extensive local excision. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the outcomes of a single-stage surgical approach that preserves the ear’s anatomical characteristics. We present a case of a 70-year-old man who was treated with a single-stage surgical technique for trichilemmal cancer of the ear. After six months, the ear seemed to have entirely healed with no evidence of recurrence. Keywords: Trichilemmal carcinoma, single-stage surgical approach, helical chondrocutaneous advancement flap, preauricular transposition flap, ear reconstruction.
