Composite Graft Revisited: Creating a De Novo Soft Triangle
摘要
Composite grafts are mainly used in complex nasal reconstructions, such as severe alar retraction or columellar defects, especially in revision cases. Success depends on precise surgical planning and a deep understanding of nasal anatomy, focusing on expanding the internal lining and achieving tip and alar contour. Key to graft survival are a clean, sharply debrided recipient bed and preserving the cartilage’s perichondrium to promote revascularization. Emerging strategies like hyperbaric oxygen therapy further enhance graft success by improving vascularization and reducing edema.
