Abstract
A 32-year-old woman presented with nasal obstruction on the right side and a cosmetic defect one year after surgery for nasal hemangioma. On inspection, the right nasal cavity was partly obstructed by a proliferative mass. Computed tomography showed a 2x3-cm soft tissue mass that destroyed the nasal bone. The mass was excised completely with the surrounding tissue and the defect was reconstructed with cartilage taken from the cavum conchae. Cartilage graft is appropriate for reconstruction of nasal bone defects because of its easy availability, elasticity, vitality, and good functional and aesthetic results.

Abstract
Otuz iki yaşında kadın hasta, burun hemanjiyomu için geçirdiği cerrahiden bir yıl sonra, sağ tarafında nazal obstrüksiyon ve kozmetik defekt ile başvur- du. İncelemede nazal boşluğu kısmen tıkayan pro- liferatif bir kitle saptandı. Bilgisayarlı tomografide, nazal kemiğe büyük ölçüde zarar veren, 2x3 cm boyutunda yumuşak doku kitlesi gözlendi. Kitle, çevre dokuyla birlikte tamamen eksize edildi ve kulağın kavum konka kısmından alınan kıkırdakla rekonstrüksiyon yapıldı. Kolay ulaşılabilirliği, elas- tik ve canlı olması, işlevsel ve estetik açıdan iyi sonuç vermesi nedeniyle nazal kemik defektlerinde kıkırdak grefti uygun bir seçenektir
