Abstract

The median frontal flap described by Kazanjian, a horizontal or slightly oblique frontal flap and the scalp flap described by Converse are discussed. It is shown that each method can be used for specific indications. The choice of method by the less experienced is therefore facilitated. A. The median frontal flap is especially indicated for the larger defects of the back and the lateral parts of the nose. B. The horizontal or slightly oblique frontal flap is especially indicated for subtotal or total defects of the nasal alae or tip of the older patients, who cannot undergo repeated surgery or prolonged hospitalisation. C. The frontal scalp flap is especially indicated for the grosser subtotal or total defects of the external nose.
