[Autologous composite grafts from the cavum conchae for reconstruction of multilayer nasal defects].

CONCLUSION: Auricular cgs are versatile and reliable autologous transplants. The ease of harvesting, minimal donor site morbidity, and stable convex shape of these grafts render them ideal for reconstruction of multilayered nasal defects. Septal splints and custom-made prosthesis promote healing and prevent stenotic scarring. PMID: 26936380 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
