Abstract: ObjectiveTo describe a naso‐facial reconstruction technique following bilateral rostral maxillectomy and its functional and cosmetic outcomes.AnimalsTwo dogs.Study designClinical case series.MethodsTwo dogs were presented with a right rostral maxillary mass. Preoperative biopsy and staging revealed a biologically high‐grade and histologically low‐grade fibrosarcoma (Hi‐Lo FSA). A combined nasal planectomy and radical bilateral rostral maxillectomy was performed sparing the labial/buccal mucocutaneous flaps bil… Show more

“…However, nasal planum reconstruction remains surgically challenging due to constraints of normal anatomy, impacting options for wide local excision [7], and due to the lack of free local tissue to reconstruct the original appearance of the nose [8]. In veterinary medicine several surgical nasal reconstructive techniques have been described: purse-string reconstruction with second intention healing [4,9,10], musculofascial island labial flap [11], direct mucocutaneous apposition [12], bilateral labial mucocutaneous rotation-advancement flaps [5,13], modified nasal rotational flap [8], lipto-nose flap [14,15], and recently, modified full-thickness labial/buccal rotational flap [16]. The choice of the most appropriate technique is based on the type, location, size, and extent of the tissue excision.…”
