Abstract

We report a 67-year-old male presented with recently evolved malignant melanoma (MM). This MM was interestingly located on the split-thickness skin graft donor site which was harvested 3 months ago for repairing previous frontoparietal MM excision area. This case was presented and literature was reviewed.
