Complex Nasal and Periorbital Reconstruction Using Locoregional Flaps: A Case Report

Complex Nasal and Periorbital Reconstruction Using Locoregional Flaps: A Case Report

Facial reconstruction is one of the most challenging problems faced by a reconstructive surgeon. We present a case of complex facial reconstruction with a composite trauma to the nose resulting in near total loss of skin and lining along with complete loss of left eyebrow with exposed frontal bone and partial loss of the left eyelid. We combined a temporoparietal fascial flap for reconstruction...

THE CLINICAL APPLICATION OF PREFABRICATED FREE FLAPS FOR NASAL RECONSTRUCTION

We have found prefabrication of hairless radial forearm free flap to be a useful technique for nasal reconstruction. Prior skin grafting and a suitable period of maturation permits safe, reliable surgery. Its use should be considered in those patients whose forehead tissue is not suitable or in whom appropriate distant flaps are not available, as is often the case with hirsute males.

Stacked PAP Flaps for Two-Stage Immediate Bilateral Breast Reconstruction: A Case Report

Melolabial fold interpolated flap for reconstruction of complex nasal defects.

Complex surgical nasal defects are often technically difficult. We report the case of a 71-year old male diagnosed with a malignant melanoma (animal type; Breslow 1.5; Clark IV) on the right nasal ala. Radial excision with margins of approximately 1.5 cm was performed, creating a complex full-thickness surgical defect involving the free wall and margin of the right nasal ala, the right soft tri...

Submental Artery Island Flap in Reconstruction of Harde Plate after wide Surgical Resection of Veruccous Carcinoma. Two case reports

Introduction: Reconstruction of intraoral soft tissue defects is important in restoring function and esthetic. In large defects, there will be demand for regional pedicle flaps or free flaps. Hard palate separates nasal and oral cavities. Due to the small surface area between flap and remaining palate after surgical resections, optimal blood supply of the flaps for hard palate reconstructions ...
