[Surgical treatment of rhinophyma using dermo-epidermal graft. A case report].

Rhinophyma is a nosographical form that has always attracted attention, even among non-experts, owing to the marked aesthetic damage it often causes. Several types of surgery have been proposed for its treatment in an attempt to elaborate a technique that is easy to apply and guarantees satisfactory results in clinical and aesthetic terms. After a short review of the general aspects of the pathology, the authors illustrate the case of a patient with rhinophyma treated with a full thickness dermo-epidermic graft, and emphasise that this surgical solution, provided that the indications are correct, is still a valid alternative.
