ABSTRACT

SUMMARY:

We devised the S-shaped incision as a technique for large nevus sequential excision. Using this technique reduces the number of operations needed to complete nevus resection and also shortens the final length and width of the scar. We report this technique after performing it on 7 patients and confirming its usefulness.
