Validation of the French Nasal Reconstruction FACE-Q Questionnaire for Patients After Nasal Skin Cancer Surgery or Prosthetic Rehabilitation

What this Trial Is About

This research aims to validate a French version of the Nasal Reconstruction FACE-Q questionnaire for patients who have undergone nasal reconstruction or prosthetic rehabilitation after surgery for nasal skin cancer. The purpose is to provide a reliable, standardized tool to assess patient satisfaction, quality of life, and side effects related to these procedures. Nasal skin cancers often require surgery that can lead to significant tissue loss and may affect appearance, function, and psychological well-being. Participants include patients who had surgical reconstruction with a flap or prosthetic rehabilitation after nasal skin cancer excision, as well as control subjects without facial trauma or surgery. The FACE-Q questionnaire covers appearance of the face and nose, health-related quality of life, psychosocial and social impacts, satisfaction with outcomes, and treatment-related adverse effects. Both operated patients and controls complete the questionnaire, which includes additional scales like Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation and Short-Form-36. During the study, participants respond to the FACE-Q and related questionnaires. Researchers evaluate the psychometric properties of the French version of the questionnaire within 7 days. The study measures patient satisfaction and functional outcomes after reconstruction or rehabilitation. This observational study does not involve treatment interventions and aims to improve tools for patient care and future research. Participation duration varies according to the questionnaire completion schedule.
