A human bite is a traumatic injury that often occurs in the recipient's nasal area. In this report, we describe the case of a 38-year-old man who was bitten by his roommate and sustained an alar rim defect. After reviewing the literature and professional recommendations for managing human bite wounds in the nasal area, we found both were unclear as to whether it is best to implement primary reconstruction or to defer reconstruction to a later date. We utilized a V–Y flap for secondary reconstruction in our patient.

Radiation therapy-induced skin ulcers are complex wounds that are unable to heal spontaneously. This affects the patient's quality of life and poses a major health problem. The most reliable curative treatment involves extensive debridement of the affected tissue and covering the wound with well-vascularized tissue. We report the case of a 76-year-old woman with a huge clavicle osteoradionecrosis ulcer that required complex resection and reconstruction with an extended vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap.
