The Carpues method is a surgical technique named after its inventor, Joseph Carpues. The spelling of this word can be explained using the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) phonetic transcription as kɑːrˈpjuːz meθəd. This means that the first syllable is pronounced as "kar", with a long "a" sound, followed by "pjuːz" pronounced as "pyooz", and ending with the final syllable pronounced as "meth-uhd". The Carpues method is commonly used in plastic surgery to repair nasal deformities and has since been adapted for various other surgical procedures.

The term "Carpues method" refers to a surgical technique known as the Carpue flap or Carpue method. It is named after its creator, Joseph Constantine Carpue, an English surgeon who developed this method in the early 19th century.
The etymology of the word "Carpue" itself traces back to the surname of Joseph Carpue, which has French origins. The Carpue family originally belonged to the Huguenots, French Protestants who fled religious persecution in the 16th and 17th centuries. Over time, the surname "Carpue" evolved from its French origins into an Anglicized form when Joseph Carpue's ancestors settled in England.
