Reconstruction of short nose deformity using nasolabial flaps pedicled on the infraorbital vessels.
Bilateral nasolabial flaps pedicled on the infraorbital vessels, and costal cartilage grafts were used to reconstruct a severe nasal deformity caused by Wegener's granuloma. We believe this flap is another useful method for nasal reconstruction, when nasolabial flaps pedicled on the angular vessels cannot be used.
