Nasal reconstruction.
Abstract
Nasal reconstruction has made significant advances over the past 50 years. Better evaluation of the defect with the concepts of primary and delayed reconstruction are reviewed. Reconstruction is superior to a prosthesis for heminasal and sub-total defects, but in total nasal loss a prosthesis may be preferred. The many modalities of rehabilitation include local flaps, regional flaps, and support with autogenous cartilage, rib, or iliac bone grafts, used either alone or in combination, depending on the extent of the defect.
