Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) infiltrating the skin is uncommon and can present in different forms. We report a case of CLL infiltrating the prominent parts of the face and the scalp. A 63-year-old male with a 10-year history of CLL presented with plum-coloured swelling of the skin of the ears, eyebrows, tip of the nose and the scalp. Histopathology showed dense sheets of lymphoid infiltrate of the dermis which stained positive with B-cell markers CD20 and CD5 in keeping with the infiltrate of CLL.
The article focuses on forehead reconstruction of surgical wounds following skin cancer resection. Reconstruction options are presented for three forehead subunits. Preserving motor and, when possible, sensory nerve function, maintaining eyebrow position, and camouflaging incisions are priorities for successful reconstruction. Most forehead defects that cannot be closed primarily are usually reconstructed with laterally based advancement flaps.
