Abstract

The nose is a complex structure important for aesthetic appearance, social interaction, and respiration. Full thickness nasal defects with resection of the septum pose a significant challenge to the reconstructive surgeon due to the lack of local tissues to replace the nasal lining and significant risk of nasal collapse owing to the paucity of rigid infrastructure. The purpose of this paper is to present a unique case of nasal reconstruction utilizing a bilaminar paramedian forehead flap (combined pericranial flap and forehead flap) with embedded cantilever rib graft in a patient who underwent resection for an intranasal malignancy involving the septum and soft tissue envelope. This case serves to demonstrate the great utility in using chimeric flaps based on a single pedicle given the low patient morbidity, predictable results, and rapid recovery period.
