Background:The excellent freedom of movement and range of this flap when based on a the nasolabial perforator flap have not been sufficiently explored. In this study, along with demonstrating the other key advantages of this flap over its traditional counterpart, we will endeavour to fill these lacunae in the available literature.Materials and Methods:From February 2009 to February 2012, twenty patients with nasal defects were repaired with a nasolabial perforator flap in the Department of Plastic and Cosmetic Surgery at Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, New Delhi. Of these, two patients (10%) underwent the procedure bilaterally. Thus, a total of 22 nasolabial perforator flap procedures were carried out. Prospectively, collected clinical records and data of each patient were retrospectively retrieved and reviewed to study the nasal defect and surgery done.Results:All the twenty (100%) patients had good functional and aesthetic outcome. All patients who had nasal stenosis preoperatively had very good improvement in the patency of the nasal passages, breathing and nasal blockage with complete recovery of symptoms. The patients were entirely satisfied with the functional recovery.Conclusions:The reliability and versatility of the nasolabial perforator flap exceed its recognised application in reconstruction of nasal defects and it must form a part of every plastic surgeon's armamentarium.

“…Es muy importante la teoría de la unidad regional, porque aunque no podemos controlar la cicatrización de heridas o prevenir las cicatrices resultantes, sí podemos seleccionar el color, la textura y el grosor del tejido donante, controlar el tamaño, la forma y la dirección de las incisiones y escisiones, y juiciosamente, elegir y modificar tanto el receptor como los tejidos donantes para establecer la exacta sustitución de los defectos, recrear y mantener los contornos faciales y obtener un resultado exitoso (6).…”

ResumenConocemos bien la gran variedad de técnicas quirúr-gicas existentes para la reconstrucción nasal, sin embargo está bien contar con una alternativa que permita restituir los tejidos del defecto con un colgajo zigomático de mejilla, que bien manejado, permite la reconstrucción nasal tridimensional y el camuflaje de las cicatrices.En este trabajo, comprobamos la versatilidad del colgajo zigomático de mejilla para la reconstrucción nasal en defectos postcáncer.Palabras clave Reconstrucción nasal, Colgajo zigomático, Colgajo de mejilla. Código numérico 2444-2428Abstract It is well known the variety of surgical techniques for nasal reconstruction, but it is good to have an alternative that offers restore tissue defect with zygomatic cheek flap, which well managed, allows reaching the threedimensional nasal reconstruction and subsequent camouflage of the scars.In this study we found the versatility of the cheek zigomatic flap in nasal reconstruction post cancer defects.

“…At the level of the angle of the mouth, this artery gives the superior labial artery branch and then becomes the angular artery, which lies under the zygomaticus major, zygomaticus minor, and levator labii superioris muscles and is superficial to the buccinator muscle. 9 The lateral nasal artery also provides many skin perforators along the course to the alar area, which are also used as a blood supply for this island pedicle flap. A single perforator artery is able to supply a 2.5-to 5.0-cm flap.…”
