Article Synopsis
- Defect closure on the nasal tip is difficult, with full-thickness skin transplants yielding poor results in contour due to insufficient dermal tissue.
- A study compared three methods: traditional skin transplants, perichondrodermal composite grafts, and skin transplants using a dermal substitute called Matriderm.
- Results indicated better nasal tip contour with combined epidermal/dermal methods, though Matriderm may lead to complications like fistulae, making it less ideal for nasal tip reconstruction.
