Petrali Method.

Forque Method.—Herein the right lateral incision of the frontal flap is begun at a point above and corresponding to the middle of the eyebrow. The base is fashioned as shown in [Fig. 333], and the left lateral incision is carried down to the median line of the old nasal defect, coming within the inner border of the eyebrow.

D’Alguie Method.—This author conceived the idea of further relieving the torsion of the pedicle by making the frontal flap transverse along the forehead, instead of perpendicular.

The incision at the root of the nose is on a level and in line with the inner ends of the eyebrows. The left lateral incision is made to lie just above the eyebrow and the right sweeps upward and outward, as shown in [Fig. 334].

The base is made with a rectangular projection to form the columna.
