Abstract:
Reconstruction of the nasal alar/vestibular complex following trauma or surgery presents a challenging problem. Options include bone, cartilage, and composite grafts as well as prosthetic materials. We present a case in which resection of an intranasal leiomyosarcoma, leaving a dome defect, was successfully reconstructed with an auricular composite graft.
