Abstract

Background: Infantile hemangiomas are common vascular tumors in childhood that usually undergo spontaneous involution. However, complications may arise, particularly in visible areas such as the centrofacial region, leading to significant aesthetic and functional sequelae. Columellar necrosis is a rare but challenging complication requiring specialized reconstruction techniques.

Methods: This report presents two cases of columellar necrosis caused by infantile hemangiomas. Reconstruction was achieved using a 3-component technique: cartilage grafts for tip support, oral vestibule mucosal flaps for lateral lining, and cutaneous turn out flaps from the columellar stumps for anterior skin coverage.

Results: Both patients achieved excellent functional and aesthetic outcomes. The described technique allowed for reliable reconstruction of the columella, addressing both structural integrity and cosmetic appearance.

Conclusion: Reconstruction of columellar defects, particularly in pediatric cases, is challenging due to the columella's small size and challenging anatomy. The described 3-component technique offers a reproducible and effective approach for isolated columellar defects, ensuring satisfactory functional and aesthetic results.

婴儿血管瘤坏死后小柱的外科重建。
背景:婴儿血管瘤是儿童时期常见的血管肿瘤,通常自发复发。然而,并发症可能会出现,特别是在可见区域,如面部中心区域,导致显著的美学和功能后遗症。小柱坏死是一种罕见但具有挑战性的并发症,需要专门的重建技术。方法:报告2例婴幼儿血管瘤所致小柱坏死。重建采用三组份技术:软骨移植用于鼻尖支持,口腔前庭粘膜皮瓣用于侧衬,小柱残端皮肤转出皮瓣用于前部皮肤覆盖。结果:两例患者均获得了良好的功能和美观效果。所描述的技术允许可靠的重建小柱,解决结构完整性和美容外观。结论:小柱缺损的重建,特别是在儿童病例中,由于小柱的小尺寸和具有挑战性的解剖结构,是具有挑战性的。所描述的三组分技术为分离的小柱状缺陷提供了一种可重复和有效的方法,确保了令人满意的功能和美学结果。
