Repair of proboscis lateralis

Kemal Uğurlu et al. Scand J Plast Reconstr Surg Hand Surg. 2005.

Abstract

We report an 8-year-old girl presented with a proboscis on the right nasal nostril, right heminasal hypoplasia, hypertelorism, and cleft lip and palate on the other side. After repair of the cleft lip and palate and the hypertelorism, we successfully reconstructed the heminose with a V-Y advancement flap containing the proboscis tube.
