Reconstruction of a fistula in the anterior soft triangle of the nose after basal cells carcinoma excision: A case report

description INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Basal cell carcinomas represent the most frequent skin cancer and the nose is the most common site of presentation. This has an impact on both aesthetics and function of the nose and consequences in patients' psyche. CASE PRESENTATION: In our paper, the first case in literature of a cutaneous fistula in the nasal soft triangle, after a basal cell carcinoma excision, and its reconstruction, is reported. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: One of the areas of weakness of the nose is the anterior soft triangle; here, any minimal alteration of the anatomy can potentially lead to severe impairment. CONCLUSION: When the nasal soft triangle is damaged, its restoration is crucial. Our technique showed both functional and aesthetic good result.
