ABSTRACT
When the secondary nasal deformity is so serious that it presents loss of the soft structures, often its correction requires a neighboring flap besides the cartilage auto-grafts. In such serious cases, which are fortunately infrequent, the surgeon must resort to reconstructive techniques that typically provide very good results. Such is the case with the midforehead Indian flap, which rotated 180 degrees, allows reconstruction of the columella in the same surgical stage. In the same manner, Denonvilliers' flap may be employed to restore contour of the nasal ala, since its scar sequel is very acceptable, and Dieffenbach's flap may be used to reconstruct the columella. The flap of labial mucosa (which other authors have employed to correct septal perforations) is rotated 90 degrees to appose with another similar contralateral flap and is used to correct the seriously retracted columella. In this paper we present some cases that demanded the application of these techniques.
