Partial to Total Nasal Reconstruction

This issue of Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America focuses on partial to total nasal reconstruction, compiled by guest editor Dr. Samuel L. Oyer. It addresses the challenges of reconstructing small nasal defects and the greater difficulty of full-thickness or near-total defects, which test even the most experienced surgeons.

The issue brings together the experience of experts in nasal reconstruction who share their techniques and practical insights to optimize outcomes for patients with these complex defects. It contains 14 practice-oriented topics, including the approach to major nasal reconstruction with staged surgery and technology, reconstruction of large nasal defects without a forehead flap, and nasal lining reconstruction with a pre-laminated forehead flap.

Additional topics cover nuances in forehead flap reconstruction for large nasal defects, prevention and management of complications, and management of traumatic nasal amputation injuries. The clinical reviews offer actionable insights for practice and present current information on this focused topic under the leadership of experienced editors.
