Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Reconstruction of any part of face and oral cavity is always very challenging to any concerned specialty and it should involve a team of specialists from different specialties to overcome the problems faced while doing any medical, surgical or rehabilitation to these patients. Since face is a major esthetic unit and to provide cosmetic as well as functional results, it needs management of both soft and hard tissues simultaneously which again is a big challenge during reconstruction and to provide primary reconstruction with a tissue on same complexion and area. Nasal cavity is one major pillar of face and its beauty, shape and bulk is a preference. Certain characteristics that effect surgeon’s decision when choosing a reconstructive ladder are complexion, depth and size of defect, location of donor site, patients age, gender and finally cosmetic expectation of the patient. Before performing any such procedure over the face, post-operative healing of soft tissues should be the main objective to be achieved. Any kind of reconstruction over the face should provide tension free primary closure. Secondary healing is never advised and preferred. Psychiatrist plays a main role in these patients to provide them counseling and medical management to achieve the self esteem and satisfactory results in these patients.
