Özet
Defects of the nasal columella result in significant cosmetic and functional deformities. Over the years, a variety of methods for nasal columella reconstruction have been described in the literature, as have the technical difficulties of reconstructing this subtle structure. Here, a successful reconstruction of a 3.0 x 2.0 cm-wide nasal columella defect, with a chondrocutaneous microsurgical free flap from the root of the auricular helix, is presented.
