Introduction: The nose is the central and probably the most important anatomical region of the face. Reconstructive surgery after tumor resection in this anatomical region requires from the surgeon knowledge of the anatomy, due to the three-dimensional shape and variety of tissues. Materials and methods: In the years 2010-2019, 48 patients were treated in the Oncological and Reconstructive Surgery Clinic for extended nasal tumors , who required the use of free microvascular flaps after resection for functional and aesthetic supply of anatomical structures of the nose. Results: In 48 patients, a total of 92 free microvascular flap were used for nasal reconstruction including: radial forearm free flap in 24 patients, radial forearm free flap with radial bone in 14 patients, auricle free flap in 16 patients, radial forearm free flap in combination with auricle free flap in 7 patients, double auricle free flap in 6 patients, radial forearm free flap in combination with double auricle free flap in 4 patients. Total necrosis of the free flap was noted in 4 cases, partial in 6 patients. Conclusions: Presented surgical techniques using the microvascular free flaps constitute a recognized method of treatment in the world and should be used in everyday surgeon practice. Discussion: In the reconstructive nose surgery after extended tumor resections due to cancer, there are no uniform treatment standards and algorithms . The surgeon is often dependent on his knowledge, skills and creative thinking . Presented results in this article allows to obtain optimal functional and aesthetic effects.
