ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of double leaf flap in repairing nasal alar soft tissue defect.Methods In 25 patients with basal cell carcinoma of nasal wing skin,the defect diameter of nasal wing soft tissue between 0.5 cm and 2.0 cm was removed and the defect was repaired with double flap immediately.Results The patients in this group were all successful in surgery.The incisions were all first-stage healing,no necrosis of the skin flap,1 to 3 years of follow-up after surgery,no recurrence of cancer,and the repair of the skin flap was basically the same as the color and texture of the surrounding tissue.The scars were not obvious.The lateral nasal wing physiological radians were naturally smooth.Both sides were symmetrical and met the aesthetic standards of the nose.Conclusions With the advantages of simple design and simple operation,high survival rate and beautiful shape of nasal wing after repair,the double-leaf flap can be widely used in clinic.
