ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To introduce the experience of reconstruction of nasal tip defect, which could obtain good functional and aesthetic results.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Based on the aesthetic subunit principle, according to the size, shape, depth of nasal tip defect, and the conditions of surrounding skin, homologous local flap (include frontonasal flap, bilobed flap, nasolabial flap, reforming rhomboid flap and forehead flap, etc.) was designed to cover the defect wound. The secondary defect of donor area was directly sutured.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>A total of 83 patients with nasal tip defect were treated by local flap transfers. The area of the defect ranged between 0.6 x 0.6 cm and 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm. The nasal tip defect was successfully closed in all patients, and all flaps survived well without obvious complications. 76 out of these 83 patients were available for follow-up from 1 to 36 months. The repaired tissue was in good match with surrounding tissue, with nice nasal contour, and cosmetic results were satisfactory. No tumor recurrence occurred.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Based on the nasal aesthetic subunit principle, local flap could be used to reconstruct the nasal tip defect below 2.5 cm x 2.5 cm, and obtain good color, contour and texture in match with the surrounding skin. Cosmetic results were satisfactory.</p>
