Following <jats:italic>en bloc<\/jats:italic> mass excision, an inverted V\u2010shaped skin incision was made in the glabellar region (i.e., the area between the eyebrows in humans). The apex of the inverted V\u2010shaped flap was rotated in three cases, whereas a horizontal sliding movement was performed in the other two cases to better cover the surgical wound. The surgical flap was then trimmed to fit the surgical wound and sutured in place in two layers (subcutaneous and cutaneous).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Tumors were diagnosed as mast cell tumors (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u20093), amelanotic conjunctival melanoma (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u20091),\u00a0and\u00a0apocrine ductal adenoma (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u20091). No recurrence was noted in a follow\u2010up time of 146\u2009\u00b1\u200984\u2009days. Satisfactory cosmetic outcome with normal eyelids closure was achieved in all cases.
