Nasoseptal Flap Closure of Traumatic Cerebrospinal Fluid Leaks [PDF]
Skull Base, 2010 The vascularized nasoseptal flap has become a principal reconstructive technique for the closure of endonasal skull base surgery defects. Despite its potential utility, there has been no report describing the use of the modern nasoseptal flap to repair traumatic cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks and documenting the outcomes of this application.

Temporoparietal Fascia Free Flap for Nasoseptal Perforation Repair [PDF]
Craniomaxillofacial Trauma & Reconstruction, 2018 Nasoseptal perforations can be a challenging defect for the reconstructive surgeon, with repair limited by the surrounding tissue availability and the defect size. In patients with a history of cocaine use, often the integrity of surrounding vasculature is questionable and large defects may not be well suited for local reconstruction.

Complications of Nasoseptal Flap Reconstruction: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
J Neurol Surg B Skull Base, 2018 Objective The nasoseptal flap (NSF) is considered the primary vascularized flap for reconstruction of dural defects with endoscopic endonasal surgery (EES) of the skull base. However, the complications and morbidities associated with this reconstructive flap are poorly understood.

Endoscopic combined “transseptal/transnasal” approach for pituitary adenoma: reconstruction of skull base using pedicled nasoseptal flap in 91 consecutive cases [PDF]
Arquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2015 Objective The purpose of this study was to describe the endoscopic combined “transseptal/transnasal” approach with a pedicled nasoseptal flap for pituitary adenoma and skull base reconstruction, especially with respect to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF ...

Endonasal flap reconstruction in sinonasal malignancy [PDF]
Frontiers in OncologySinonasal malignancies are a broad, yet rare, class of head and neck cancers with a poor prognosis. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment for the majority of tumors.

Nasoseptal Flap for Skull Base Reconstruction in Children. [PDF]
J Neurol Surg B Skull Base, 2018 Objective The endoscopic endonasal approach is being increasingly used for the resection and reconstruction of anterior skull base (ASB) lesions. Vascularized nasoseptal flaps (NSF) have become the workhorse for the reconstruction of ASB defects, resulting in a significant decrease in the incidence of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks.

Collagen Matrix Combined With Hydroxyapatite and Nasoseptal Flap for Skull Base Reconstruction [PDF]
Laryngoscope Investigative OtolaryngologyBackground Extended endoscopic endonasal transsphenoidal approaches (ExEETSA) commonly result in high‐flow cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks that demand robust reconstruction strategies. Although nasoseptal flap (NSF) is a standard reconstructive technique,
