The use of cochlear implants (CI) may be associated with different complications, being extrusion of the device one of the most common. Reconstruction of the defect with a healthy and vascularized tissue is often required. We present two patients with a CI extrusion treated with a temporoparietal fascia flap.

The temporoparietal fascia flap (TPFF) has recently emerged as an option for skull base reconstruction in endoscopic transnasal surgery when vascularized nasal flaps are not available. This study provides a systematic literature review of its use in skull base surgery and describes a novel cohort of patients. PRISMA guidelines were used for the review.

Simultaneous reconstruction after removal of nasal silicone implants was published as diced, autologous rib and ear auricular cartilages, and each had their shortcomings. Temporoparietal fascial grafts were used for facial and nasal contouring, vascularized tissue coverage, and augmentation the nose, lip. The temporoparietal fascia graft may be considered for in-time replacement of allografts and remaining bulkiness.

Introduction: The two most severe complications of single-stage, porous polyethene microtia reconstruction are flap necrosis/framework exposure and frontal nerve paralysis. To reduce these risks, require a temporoparietal fascia (TPF) flap that includes both the parietal and frontal branches of the superficial temporal artery (STA) while sparing the nerve. We propose a classification that helps minimize said complications.
