摘要: In the present article, authors describe a new chondrocutaneous island flap from ear helix for nose reconstruction. Anatomic studies showed that vascularization depends mainly on superficial temporal vessels. The presence of vascular communications between anterior frontal branch system and supraorbital supratrochlear arterial systems allows this to be used in reverse flow fashion. This has been successfully seven cases reconstructing composite defects nasal tip ala. donor-site defect is repaired with an advancement rotation helical rim, leaving inconspicuous scar giving acceptable cosmetic result donor area.
