SARDUY-BORGES, Angel Rafael; RODRIGUEZ-DIAZ, Ana María  and  GONZALEZ-DUARDO, Kendry. Nasal reconstruction of oncological lesions. Report of two cases. Rev. inf. cient. [online]. 2022, vol.101, n.6  Epub Dec 16, 2022. ISSN 1028-9933.

A case report was made with the aim of showing the reconstruction surgery of two patients with a diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma in nasal ala, in which the evolution was observed according to the therapeutic modality used after tumor resection. In both patients, the functionality and esthetics objectives were achieved, with the completed resection of tumor and with the guarantee of a good quality of life, which is the high priority of modern oncology. In patients with basal cell carcinoma, surgery continues to be the best option with the use of skin flaps to repair the nasal defect; however, due to its characteristics, nasal surgery is a surgical challenge. There is no ideal flap, it is an individualized procedure, and the reconstructive option must be planned according to each patient and their own characteristics, as well as those concerning the residual surgical defect.

Keywords : basal cell carcinoma; surgical flaps; nasal tumors; surgery.
