Summary
An island pedicle bilobed flap with extended rotation effectively reconstructed a nasal tip defect, achieving excellent viability and aesthetics without distortion. This technique offers a promising option for nasal reconstruction.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Dermatologic Surgery
- Reconstructive Surgery
Background:
- The bilobed flap is a standard nasal reconstruction technique, typically with limited rotation to prevent alar distortion.
- Island pedicle flaps may offer increased rotational freedom by removing cutaneous connections.
