Abstract
The use of bicoronal incisions has been sufficiently described in neur osurgery and craniofacial surgery including osteotomies and injuries. This approach provides excellent surgical access for nasal reconstruct ion with a very low rate of morbidity. A series of 11 patients, togeth er with three case reports, illustrates the advantages and possible co mplications of this type of incision.
