개방형 접근법 Open Approach

[BACKGROUND] Tranexamic acid (TXA) is widely used to reduce postoperative edema and ecchymosis; however, evidence comparing topically applied and locally injected routes following rhinoplasty remains limited and inconsistent. [OBJECTIVES] …

[BACKGROUND] In rhinoplasty, the open approach carries potential risks such as hypertrophic scarring, while synthetic implants carry potential risks like infection. Therefore, we propose a new technique that utilizes exclusively auricular c…

[BACKGROUND] Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty maintains dorsum integrity while refining nasal aesthetics, but dorsal hump recurrence is a common limitation, especially after extensive reshaping. Electrocautery offers precise cartilage contou…

Periorbital edema and ecchymosis are frequent complications after rhinoplasty, impacting early recovery and patient satisfaction. To evaluate the effect of subperiosteal drain placement in patients undergoing ultrasonic piezo-assisted rhin…

[AIMS AND BACKGROUND] The soft tissue envelope is inherently disrupted during rhinoplasty, especially in the open approach and during tip plasty. To avoid adverse outcomes such as pollybeak deformity and nasal valve collapse, these soft tis…

[INTRODUCTION] Optimizing results in rhinoplasty depends on meticulous intraoperative techniques and diligent postoperative care. Although several postoperative interventions are performed to ensure successful rhinoplasty outcomes, practice…

[BACKGROUND AND AIMS] The present study aimed to investigate patients' satisfaction after rhinoplasty using the ROE questionnaire and to examine some influencing variables. [METHODS] This is an analytical cross-sectional study. The study p…

Nasal septal perforation (NSP) repair has evolved with the development of advanced techniques like the anterior ethmoidal artery (AEA) and greater palatine artery (GPA) flaps, achieving high success rates. Traditional challenges in combinin…

[OBJECTIVE] Nasal septal perforation (NSP) is characterized by defects in the mucosal, cartilaginous, and bony structures of the septum, most commonly resulting from septoplasty. Spontaneous healing of NSPs is rare, necessitating surgical i…

[BACKGROUND] The TARD technique (Tumescent anesthesia, sharp cannula Release, Debulking) achieves satisfactory outcomes in mild-to-moderate fibrofatty dorsocervical hump, but shows limitations in fibrous-dominant subtype. [OBJECTIVES] To i…

[BACKGROUND] The supratip break point is paramount in nasal aesthetics. "Pollybeak deformity" denotes a swollen supratip, posing aesthetic concerns. The Pitanguy ligament facilitates tissue attachment and aids in the control of fibrosis. Th…

[METHODOLOGY] Patients exhibited progressive saddle nose deformity as a result of GPA. To reconstruct the nose, a single-stage open rhinoplasty was conducted involving the placement of an independent L-shaped costal cartilage implant. Graft…

Rhinoplasty, while effective for nasal reshaping, frequently results in postoperative edema and delayed recovery. This randomized controlled trial evaluated photobiomodulation (PBM) using a 940 nm diode laser (4 J/cm² energy density, 0.1 W …

[BACKGROUND] Nasal tip position is a crucial aspect of rhinoplasty. To stabilize and define the nasal tip, various cartilaginous grafts have been widely utilized. The purpose of this systematic review is to critically evaluate and compare 2…

Rhinoplasty is one of the most performed procedures by plastic surgeons worldwide, for both functional and cosmetic indications. The demand for aesthetic rhinoplasty in India has been on the rise over the past decade. Despite this rise in d…

Managing nasal tip support and lateral crura malposition remains a challenge in rhinoplasty.This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel suture technique-the Pulley-Stitch-in correcting lateral crura malposition. Primary outcom…

[BACKGROUND] Performing rhinoplasty in patients with a thick skin often presents as a challenge. This article describes an assessment tool to (1) classify patients according to the of their skin and (2) to demonstrate the of this classifi…

[BACKGROUND] During primary rhinoplasty, dorsal hump reduction almost always impairs the middle vault and if not reconstructed nasal obstruction is likely to occur. [OBJECTIVE] The aim of this study is to suggest a novel technique that can…
