Bridge flap repair for central nasal dorsum defect

Abstract

Surgery of the nose to remove skin cancer often requires the use of local flaps. We present a defect after the extirpation of a previously incompletely excised infiltrative squamous cell carcinoma, which we repaired with a Bridge flap, a bipedicled and subcutaneous islanded flap whose excellent vascularity allows reliable reconstruction and rapid mobilisation, with dependable results.
