Sažetak
Self-induced ulceration of ala nasi in trigeminal trophic syndrome is a rare complication secondary to trigeminal nerve peripheral or central lesion, which occurs as a sequel of anesthesia and facial paresthesias associated with compulsive touching of the nose. Two patients with trigeminal trophic syndrome associated with facial and statoacoustic nerve lesion following statocoustic neurinoma surgery are described. Successful ala nasi reconstruction with psychiatric treatment for prevention of compulsive nose touching was performed in one patient.
