Abstract:
AIM:To investigate the process and advantages of wound repair at one stage after repair of nasal skin defect with bilobed flap.METHODS:Under local infiltration anesthesia,nasal skin defects were repaired by bilobed skin flaps.The normal skin around the defect was designed for bilobed island skin flaps.The maximum size of the flaps was 1.8 cm?2.5 cm,and the minimum size was 0.8 cm?1.0 cm.And then the flaps were transferred to repair the defects.The distances from incisions to margin of lesions were as follow:hemangioma was 0.2 cm,basal cell carcinoma was 0.5-0.7 cm,and melanoma was 1.0 cm.The depths of incisions reached superficial fascia layer.Complete hemostasis of wound was performed.RESULTS:Fifty of 92 patients were followed up for 6 months,and 42 of them were followed up for 12 months.In all patients,the nasal skin defects were repaired completely with primary healing.The color and texture of the flap were the samilar with the adjacent skin,and the nose contour and cosmetic results were satisfactory.CONCLUSION:Repair of bilobed island skin flap for nasal skin defeets was simple,and the efficacy was satisfactory.
