[Reconstruction of the nose using expanded forehead flap].
The history of using forehead flaps for nasal reconstruction is reviewed. A case of nasal reconstruction in a man who underwent amputation for squamous cell carcinoma is reported. The surface of the forehead flap was augmented by expanded tissues at the donor site. We describe the surgical procedure and its excellent results.
