Closure of large nose-cheek groove defects. 1977

D A Bray, and B S Eichel

Reconstruction of large defects involving the nose-cheek groove area present technical and cosmetic problems. A combination of a cheek falp with a dorsal-nasal rotation flap gives excellent survival and cosmesis for the nose as well as the cheek. The techniques of the dorsal-nasal flap alone and in combination with a cheek advancement flap are demonstrated.
