Nasal reconstruction is considered as one of the difficult reconstructive
problems to solve. That is due to the importance of the cosmetic appearance of the nose, the several types
of tissues forming the nose and the complexity of the anatomy of th
e nose.
Due to the small nostrils, delicate tissue and lack of surrounding tissues enough for reconstruction, this
problem becomes more difficult to in the reconstruction of children’s noses,
The aim of this research is to look at the cases of nasal reconstruction in children at Mouassat university
hospital, and to suggest a new modification on the forehead flap, which leads to lengthening the flap by
recruiting a piece of the Galea as a facial flap connected to the distal end of the forehead flap. This flap
will be covered with a split thickness skin graft, then it will be folded to reconstruct the inner surface of
the nose.
