Nasal prostheses have long served as critical solutions for patients who have lost part or all of their nose due to cancer, accidents, or congenital deformities. Discussed here is a case report of a patient with basal cell carcinoma who underwent partial rhinectomy and was rehabilitated with a nasal prosthesis fabricated with polymethyl methacrylate and retained with eyewear. The integration of nasal prostheses with eyewear frames not only enhances stability and comfort but also streamlines the daily routine of prosthetic wearers. Patients experience greater freedom of movement, reduced skin irritation, and improved aesthetic results. Custom coloring and texturing techniques ensure the prosthesis blends seamlessly with the patient's skin tone and texture, enhancing self-confidence and psychosocial well-being.
鼻假体长期以来一直是因癌症、事故或先天性畸形而失去部分或全部鼻子的患者的关键解决方案。本文讨论了一例基底细胞癌患者的病例报告,该患者接受了部分鼻切除术,并用聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯制作的鼻假体进行了修复,并通过眼镜固定。鼻假体与眼镜框架的结合不仅提高了稳定性和舒适度,还简化了假体佩戴者的日常生活。患者行动更加自由,皮肤刺激减少,美观效果改善。定制的着色和纹理技术确保假体与患者的肤色和质地无缝融合,增强自信心和心理社会幸福感。
