<p class="Abstract">Reconstruction of soft tissue at the nose following excision of basal cell carcinoma is always challenging, because of both functional and aesthetic importance of nose. The local flap is always preferable to skin graft as this produces “like with like” replacement, pliable cover and vascularized tissue over the skeletal framework. In this paper, we discussed six cases of nasal reconstruction with bilobed flap, forehead flap, and nasolabial flap. All flaps survived and the patients had satisfactory outcome.</p>

Introduction: Neglected basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the nose can grow into giant BCCs, rare cases with extensive nasal defects. Such large defects would require complex reconstruction such as free flaps or multiple local flaps. Lateral forehead flap may provide a simpler alternative with good functional and cosmetic results.Case Presentation: We present a case of a 76-year-old man with neglected giant BCC of nose extending to right lower eyelid and upper lip. Wide excision of the tumor leaves a 12cm x 10cm defect. Reconstruction was performed using lateral forehead flap and donor site was covered with split-thickness skin graft from thigh. The second surgery was done after four months to create nostrils and wider eye-opening. Six months later, flap was viable and there was no sign of recurrence. Nasal reconstruction is planned to further improve cosmetics. In this case, neglect is due to low social-economic status and adaptation to painless tumors. The use of lateral forehead flap allows for simpler and faster surgery suitable for elderly. Delayed reconstruction was needed to ensure optimal tissue healing. Conclusions: Neglected BCC causes disfigurement with remarkable morbidity, requiring complex reconstruction. The lateral forehead flap is a simple and reliable reconstruction method for extensive nasal defects with good functional and cosmetic outcomes.

Large facial defects are difcult to reconstruct especially of the cheek and nose. Varoius methods have been used to ll defects of the face. Here, we discuss about a large soft tissue defect of the cheek, nasolabial area and the right nasal sidewall and ala which occurred following excision of a basal cell carcinoma. The defect was reconstructed by a double ap, a cervicofacial advancement ap for the cheek and nasolabial area with a composite forehead ap for the nose. The cervicofacial ap gives good aesthetic results with minimal scar and good colour and texture match to the surrounding skin and is very helpful in the elderly due to their skin laxity and the scars hidden well in the wrinkles. It causes minimal morbidity. The forehead ap is a well known ap in the armamentarium for nasal reconstruction with excellent results.

Satisfactory Outcome

Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common carcinoma in the oral cavity. Resection of these cancers often requires reconstruction. Nasolabial flaps are a robust and reliable local flap that provide a satisfactory outcome. We report two cases where an epidermoid cyst developed within the scar of the nasolabial flap and review the literature.

Transposition Flap

Background: An extensive basal cell carcinoma that reached the maxillary sinus was removed. In the first reconstructive stage, we closed the primary defect on the sinus with a rotation-transposition flap. The distal portion of the flap necrosed, producing a defect in the nasolabial fold that left the sinus open and caused upward retraction of the upper lip. Objective: The defect of the nasolabial fold had to be corrected and the sinus closed; in a later stage, the retractile scar that appeared on the upper lip also needed correction. Methods: We used a delayed, elongated, right paramedian flap to correct the defect on the nasolabial fold and to close the sinus. We then corrected the retractile scar on the upper lip with a V-Y advancement flap. Results: The defect was closed without complications and the V-Y flap worked in returning the upper lip to its anatomic position. Conclusion: The midforehead flap is best for the reconstruction of the tip and the alar areas of the nose, including the near nasolabial fold. The V-Y advancement flap is an easy flap that allows one to correct retractions around the facial orifices. In dermatologie surgery, the final results must be as esthetic as possible.
