Nasal reconstruction presents challenges due to complex anatomy. This study reviews 35 cases, detailing flap and graft choices for defects, achieving stable cosmetic and functional outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Nasal reconstruction is complex due to the nose's midfacial location and subunit structure.
  • Defects arise from tumor removal, trauma, or cocaine abuse, necessitating precise reconstruction.
  • Burget's nasal subunits guide surgical planning for optimal defect management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a departmental approach to nasal reconstruction.
  • To correlate reconstructive techniques with defect size, location, and tissue availability.
  • To evaluate the long-term cosmetic and functional outcomes of various nasal reconstruction methods.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective review of 35 patients undergoing nasal reconstruction between 2000-2002.
  • Detailed documentation of reconstructive techniques used, including various flaps and grafts.

  • Follow-up assessment of cosmetic and functional results at 12-24 months.

    • Main Results:

    • A variety of techniques were employed: 19 paramedian forehead flaps, 5 nasolabial flaps, 3 bilobed flaps, and others.
    • High success rate with all flaps surviving except one free flap.
    • No postoperative complications reported for the majority of cases.

    Conclusions:

    • The choice of nasal reconstruction technique depends on defect characteristics and available donor tissue.
    • The reviewed methods provide stable and satisfactory cosmetic and functional results.
    • This study offers a practical guide for selecting appropriate nasal reconstruction strategies.
