Biochemical Compositional Analysis of Cadaveric Rib Cartilage.
Cadaveric rib is used as a cartilage source for reconstructive rhinoplasty in patients who lack sufficient native septal cartilage; however, these grafts are known to warp. To measure and compare the biochemical properties of cadaveric rib…

Nasoseptal Surgery Outcomes in Smokers and Nonsmokers.
Many surgeons refuse to perform elective nasal surgery in active smokers, but little literature exists that addresses the risks of doing so; we sought to quantify the differences in outcomes after nasal surgery among smokers, previous smoke…

Computer-Aided Rhinoplasty Using a Novel "navigated" Nasal Osteotomy Technique: A Pilot Study.
[OBJECTIVE] To describe the surgical technique of navigation-guided nasal osteotomies and assess feasibility of this technique for treating complex nasal bone deformities in reconstructive rhinoplasty. [METHODS] A retrospective chart revie…

Avoiding Complications in Functional and Aesthetic Rhinoplasty.
Historically, nasoseptal surgery favoring functional considerations has compromised aesthetic ones, and vice versa, but modern techniques have evolved that allow symbiotic achievement of both goals. Nasoseptal surgery is among the most comm…

Masseteric-to-Facial Nerve Transfer and Selective Neurectomy for Rehabilitation of the Synkinetic Smile.
[IMPORTANCE] Synkinesis is the involuntary movement of 1 area of the face accompanying volitional movement of another; it is commonly encountered in patients affected by facial palsy. Current treatments for synkinesis include biofeedback fo…

Evaluating the Effect of Spreader Grafting on Nasal Obstruction Using the NOSE Scale.
[OBJECTIVE] The Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) scale has been used to demonstrate that surgery improves nasal obstruction, but no study has directly compared surgical techniques. We performed a retrospective study comparing NOS…

Safety of 2-Octyl Cyanoacrylate in Spreader Grafting.
Cyanoacrylate adhesives can make the placement of spreader grafts in open septorhinoplasty technically easier, but its use is off-label beneath the skin. There is a theoretical risk of toxicity from cyanoacrylate breakdown products, but thi…
