Abstract
Careful internal defect coverage is important for a well vascularised internal base for the transplant in reconstructive nasal surgery. Secondary healing of intranasal wounds often results in nostril contracture and scar stenosis. The choice of methods for surgical coverage depends on the location of the defect and the condition of surrounding elements. For example, the double-stemmed "pot handle" flap is suitable for small defects of the internal lining of the nasal lobule. The septal mucosa flap can be used for larger and more complex defects of the internal nasal lining. Using composite skin and cartilage grafts from the ear, three-layered nasal defects can be treated in a variety of ways. The turn-in flap is a tilt flap and is very versatile for the treatment of inner defects of the lower nasal half.
