Key issues in nasal reconstruction CURRENT OPINION IN OTOLARYNGOLOGY & HEAD AND NECK SURGERY Asaria, J., Pepper, J. P., Baker, S. R. 2010; 18 (4): 278-282

Abstract

To review recent research and advances in nasal reconstruction over the last 12 months.Although the major principles of replacing surgically ablated tissues with like tissue and respecting the nasal aesthetic subunits have not changed, recent advances in nasal reconstruction have focused on producing superior aesthetic and functional results, while minimizing deformity and morbidity. Future directions may also include the application of allotransplantation and tissue engineering.A large variety of sophisticated techniques continue to emerge with the goal of producing increasingly natural results for patients undergoing nasal reconstruction.
