Functional and Aesthetic Comparison of Surgical Nasal Reconstruction Versus Nasal Prosthesis (Epithesis) After Total or Subtotal Nasal Amputation

CERNAS is a prospective, multicenter, non-interventional study comparing the functional and aesthetic outcomes of two rehabilitation strategies after total or subtotal nasal amputation: surgical reconstruction (primarily paramedian forehead flap or free flap) versus nasal epithesis (prosthesis). Patients who have undergone either rehabilitation at least one year prior to enrolment will be invited to complete the validated French version of the SCHNOS (Standardized Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey) questionnaire. The study aims to provide an objective, patient-reported comparison of these two options to guide future clinical decision-making.
