Partial lateral nasal defects challenge the plastic surgeon both technically and aesthetically. Many methods for reconstruction of these defects have been described. We have used a turnover forehead flap in conjunction with composite auricular graft for the reconstruction of nasal defects. The forehead flap is turned over so that the forehead skin serves as internal lining in the nose. The composite auricular graft serves as external nasal lining and provides mechanical support to the ala. The technique was used in seven patients and is presented here with illustrations, selected cases, results, and conclusions concerning patient selection.
