Nasal reconstruction with two stages versus three stages forehead fap. What is better for patients with high vascular risk?
In nasal reconstruction, it is necessary to replace all anatomic layers in order to reinstate correct aesthetics. The most apt donor site to use in order to cover the nose has been recognized as forehead skin. Traditionally 2 phases are required to reconstruct the forehead flap; however, an intermediate third phase was described by Millard which is between transfer of the flap and division of the pedicle.
