The supraorbital tubed frontotemporal island flap for cutaneocartilagenous nose tip repair.

Abstract

A variety of different approaches in tumor surgery have been proposed for the functional and cosmetic treatment of cutaneocartilagenous defects of the nose. This paper describes the various reconstructive methods which use the supraorbital tubed frontotemporal flap techniques after SCHMID and modified by MEYER and KESSELRING. We present our handling of this flap technique.
