Nasal Stenosis Treated with a Composite Skin Graft

A 58-year-old female patient was presented, who complained about breathing and aesthetic difficulties due to external nasal valve obstruction and nasal deformity that developed after nasal trauma surgery. Nasal stenosis recurs easily after surgery, especially if internal nasal stenosis is not adequately managed. Nasal stenosis in this case was well treated using a composite skin graft.
