A Unique Method for Total Nasal Defect Reconstruction - Prefabricated Innervated Osteocutaneous Radial Forearm Free Flap

Abstract

A 52-Year-old woman underwent a two-stage total nose reconstruction for complete nasal defect due to skin cancer. In the 1^st stage, innervated osteocutaneous radial forearm flap ("Neo nose") was raised with the help of a 3D template. In the 2^nd stage, well vascularised "Neo-nose" was transferred to the face and covered with pre-expanded forehead flap.
