Delayed healing can also be unpredictable with regards to the
amount of contraction seen, which can distort surrounding anatomy

Q

Nasolabial flaps can be utilized for resurfacing defects of the
nasal sidewall and ala

A

T

43
Q

anatomic distortion is significant with nasolabial flap

A

F Because tissue is recruited from outside the
the nose itself, anatomic distortion is minimized enabling the closure of
larger nasal defects

Q

In the nasolabial flap Removal of intervening tissue is better tolerated at the ala of the nose

Q

bilobed flaps are used on tip and ala, not the dorsum

A

T

64
Q

defects as small
as a few millimeters on the nasal tip or ala can significantly distort a
patient’s appearance if closed without the recruitment of tissue from
outside the area

A

T

65
Q

it is recommended that the relevant subunit anatomy be marked with
the patient upright in the preoperative area rather than supine on the
operating room table

A

T

66
Q

bipedicle bucket
handle flap from high in the nasal vault may be used for small ala
or alar margin lining defects.

A

T

67
Q

For mid-vault defects, the ipsilateral
or contralateral septa! lining can provide a large amount of mucosa
for lining replacement

A

T

68
Q

When harvested from the ipsilateral nose,
the lining flap is based anteriorly off of the labial artery via its columella branches

A

T

tissue transfer such as a free radial or ulnar forearm flap is typically
required

Q

The dorsal nasal flap, glabellar, Rieger, and miter
flaps Supplied by
the angular artery

A

T

74
Q

The dorsal nasal flap, glabellar, Rieger, and miter
flaps are muscular flap

A

these flaps are elevated as skin and subcutaneous
tissue with or without muscle and rotated and/or advanced inferiorly
toward the nasal tip

75
Q

One common disadvantage of these flaps is the
depressed transverse scar that is often apparent at the flap junction
with the tip subunit

A

76
Q

Bilobed flap rotation in 180 degrtee

A

F Traditionally, flaps
were designed to require a 180° rotation, which created large dogears

and later Zitelli,25
developed the aforementioned design to decrease the flap’s rotation to 90° to 100°.

77
Q

The V-Y flap can be used in in convex surface

A

A

T

80
Q

In the middle part of the nose, lateral defects
that are vertically oriented can use a V-Y flap from the remaining sidewall extending onto the medial cheek.

A

T

81
Q

The goal
for inset should be that the flap is completely on the nose instead of
straddling the nasal-cheek junction so as to not efface this natural
crease.

The principal limitation of nasolabial flaps is the nature of pincushioning or trapdoor healing that occurs at the location of the nasal side wall

A

F The principal limitation of nasolabial flaps is the nature of pincushioning or trapdoor healing that occurs at the location of the ala

83
Q

midline nasal defects can be resurfaced using flaps based
on either the left or right pedicle, whereas unilateral defects are
reconstructed by flaps based on the ipsilateral pedicle to shorten
the distance between the pivot point and the defect, assuming no
previous scars in the area in forehead flap
