Abstract

The nose is the most common site for facial skin cancer; nonmelanoma skin cancers are the most common tumors of this region. Median and paramedian forehead flaps have been proposed for nasal defects greater than 2.5Y3 cm in diameter. The aim of this study was to describe a peculiar case of a recurrence of a squamous cell carcinoma in a forehead flap of a post-rhinectomy site managed by a fabrication of a total nasal prosthesis as salvage procedure. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case in the scientific literature of a recurrence of a squamous cell carcinoma in a forehead flap of a post-rhinectomy site; this peculiar clinical report adds knowledge in the complex field of nasal reconstruction.
