Especially for defects near the eyelids or the canthus with a free margin, high tension should be avoided because of the lack of counter or opposing force. Using purse-string suture (PSS), a technique commonly used for reconstruction, for such sites may cause negative functional and cosmetic outcomes. Here we present a large surgical defect adjacent to lateral canthus that was successfully closed by modified PSS followed by secondary intention healing and rhombic flap.
