비중격 Nasal Septum

[OBJECTIVE] The rotation and projection of the nasal tip are fundamental factors in determining surgical success. The tongue-in-groove (TIG) technique is performed by securing the medial crura to the septum to control nasal tip rotation and…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal septum deviation can contribute to facial asymmetry by affecting skeletal and soft tissue balance. This technical report presents a 23-year-old female who developed recurrent septal deviation and facial asymmetry after rh…

The anterior nasal spine (ANS) anchors the septum and supports nasal tip projection; hypoplasia or absence of the ANS can disrupt nasal symmetry. In rhinoplasty, rigid fixation of the nasal framework to the facial skeleton is critical for l…

[AIM AND BACKGROUND] Septal deformities are highly prevalent in the population and septoplasties are one of the most common procedures performed by otolaryngologists and facial plastic surgeons. Caudal septal deformities represent a challen…

[BACKGROUND] Primary rhinoplasty (PR) to correct the cleft nasal deformity at the time of unilateral cleft lip repair seeks to achieve durable improvement of nasal symmetry and projection. However, neither the components of primary cleft rh…

[INTRODUCTION] The use of let-down and push-down techniques has gained great popularity. In dorsal preservation rhinoplasty, down techniques are used to correct the dorsal hump with resections from the septum while preserving the anatomic i…

[INTRODUCTION] The septocolumellar suture technique has shown consistent efficacy in achieving precise nasal tip aesthetics for over 20 years. This study aims to evaluate the long-term outcomes of primary endonasal rhinoplasty. [METHODS] R…

[OBJECTIVE] To investigate the anatomical connections and histological features of the orbital septum in patients with mild ptosis undergoing blepharoplasty. [METHODS] From May 2018 to December 2019, we studied 276 blepharoplasty patients …

[BACKGROUND] Achieving functional results in nasal reconstruction necessitates a focus on structural integrity. Surgeons are often challenged by limited supply of donor material for grafting. This study aims to determine the types and mater…

[OBJECTIVE] To determine how storage medium and temperature affect the histological viability of autologous septal cartilage intended for early revision rhinoplasty. [METHODS] Cartilage specimens stored for 6 and 12 months in four media-dr…

[AIM AND BACKGROUND] Revision or secondary rhinoplasty involving the nasal tip is challenging due to distorted anatomy, scarring, and compromised tip support. This article presents a framework for surgical approach and decision-making in se…

[BACKGROUND] Augmentation mastopexy is complex due to the biomechanical conflict between lifting ptotic tissue and introducing volume with implants. In medium-to-large breasts or in patients with poor tissue quality, the imbalance between n…

[AIMS AND BACKGROUND] This article aims to provide a comprehensive overview of nasal tip support, tensioning mechanics, and suture-based techniques that refine projection, rotation, and stability in rhinoplasty. Modern approaches emphasize …

[OBJECTIVE] Through clinical intraoperative observation, gross anatomy and histologic observation, the authors will preliminarily clarify the detailed structures of various tissues related to the upper eyelid opening and closing movement an…

[BACKGROUND] Preservation of septal cartilage harvested during primary septoplasty can reduce the need for secondary donor sites in future revision rhinoplasty. However, the optimal storage conditions for maintaining tissue viability and ex…

Rhinoseptoplasty addresses both nasal deformities and functional issues. Effective postoperative care is essential for optimal recovery, as complications such as swelling, bruising, and pain can adversely affect healing and patient satisfac…

Candidacy for dorsal preservation rhinoplasty (DPR) techniques is determined by a combination of preoperative nasal analysis and intraoperative assessment of the bony vault and septum. Classic ideal candidates have a pleasing frontal aesthe…

Over-resection leads to many complications in rhinoplasty. Here, we detail the most common of these pitfalls and strategies to both avoid and repair them.The nose is frequently divided into thirds. The nasal bones represent the upper third.…

Asian augmentation rhinoplasty has seen marked transitions in both its technical and aesthetic aspects over time, to address the distinct anatomical needs of Asian patients while aligning with their individual standards of beauty. This stud…
