Background Skin lesions on the nose are common.Multiple surgical techniques have been used for nasal reconstruction.These options may be autogenous or alloplastic and can be performed in single or multiple stages.The choice of coverage depends on the nature of the lesion,location on the nose,and available donor sites.This study aimed to evaluate the surgical outcomes of using locoregional flaps for nasal reconstruction.Methods A total of 27 patients underwent surgery.There were 9 men and 18 women,aged 7 months to 93 years.Four patients presented with involuting hemangioma,five patients with ischemic necrosis of the columella,and five patients with congenital nevus;the remaining 13 patients were previously diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma.Six techniques have been described for nasal reconstruction at our institution from 2016 to 2020.Most patients had basal cell carcinoma(n=13).Locoregional flaps and primary sutures were used for nasal reconstruction.Results The complications were minimal.One patient had a superficial infection and one experienced postoperative bleeding.No recurrence was observed,and none of the patients asked for a second opinion.Conclusion Radical excision of tumors combined with analysis of nasal defects and nearby donor sites is essential for nasal reconstruction.The use of locoregional flaps leads to consistent and good aesthetic outcomes.
