Abstract

ABULLARADE, Jezabel de. Forehead paramedian flap with narrow pedicle for total skin surface of the nose: an interesting case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2019, vol.45, n.1, pp.45-49.  Epub Feb 27, 2020. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922019000100008.

Total resection of the skin of the nose in non-melanoma skin carcinoma is rare.

In this paper we want to know the safety of the performance of the forehead paramedian flap with narrow pedicle in an elderly patient.

Three stage forehead paramedian flap with narrow pedicle was performed in the lining reconstruction of the total skin nasal surface. The donor site was closed primarily. Necrosis of the flap did not occur, nor infection happened. Excellent aesthetic and functional results were achieved.

We conclude on the safety of the reconstruction of the total surface of the skin of the nose in the elderly patient with the three-stage forehead paramedian flap with narrow pedicle.

Keywords : Forehead flap; Forehead paramedian flap; Nose; Nasal reconstruction; Non-melanoma skin cancer.
