Title: Reconstruction of the burned nose. Author: Furnas DW, Achauer BM, Bartlett RH. Journal: J Trauma; 1980 Jan; 20(1):25-31. PubMed ID: 6985973. Abstract: Nasal reconstruction is one of the most important elements in rehabilitation of the patient suffering from the devastating deformities of full-thickness facial burns. When possible we use a single pedicle for complete nasal reconstruction. The forehead furnishes the best donor area. More distant donor sites are used if the forehead is not available. In lesser deformities, resurfacing with composite grafts or full-thickness skin grafts gives satisfactory results.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
