[BACKGROUND] Traditional rhinoplasty tip grafts often lead to visibility issues, prompting patients to seek revision surgery. The mastoid fascia tissue graft (MFTG) provides a natural-appearing alternative with an acceptable risk of complic…

[BACKGROUND] Nose deviation deformities pose a complex cosmetic and functional problem. The most common surgical intervention to manage such deformities is septorhinoplasty, typically performed by a plastic surgeon or a rhinologist. This st…

Patients with cleft lip ± palate may experience psychosocial issues related to their secondary cleft nasal deformities. These concerns can be addressed earlier instead of being required to wait until skeletal maturity. A novel early rhinopl…

[OBJECTIVE] Managing benign tumours of the external nose involves balancing optimal excision with the preservation of nasal function and aesthetics. This study aims to identify histologic diagnoses, surgical strategies and post-operative ou…

[BACKGROUND] Lateral crura surface problems are one of the most difficult challenges in nose tip surgery. Closed preservation rhinoplasty (CPR) is a revolutionary concept that keeps nose tip flexibility and elasticity. By solving lateral cr…

[OBJECTIVE] We aimed to evaluate the relationship between emergence agitation and pre-operative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) after rhinoplasty. [METHODS] Our study included 104 patients. All p…

A three-year-old boy was referred to our clinic for a draining lesion on the dorsum of the nose, several months following the surgical excision of a nasal dermoid cyst in Egypt. Physical examination demonstrated a pit on the skin of the nas…

The ideal procedure to correct nasal obstruction in persons with external nasal deformity by comparing two techniques of rhinoplasty i.e. open technique and endoscopic technique is of interest. Hence, a prospective study was done for a peri…

The treatment of septal perforations is a challenging endeavor. The recurrence rate ranges from 30% to 70%. Operative correction often requires wide dissection, local flaps, and septal spacers. The pediatric population poses an even greater…

[BACKGROUND] Pediatric nasal dermoid/sinus cysts (NDSC) are common congenital midline craniofacial lesions associated with embryonic tissue entrapment and abnormal midline fusion during embryogenesis; they can involve intracranial structure…

A crooked nose is a challenge for a surgeon performing rhinoplasty. When performed correctly, rhinoseptoplasty aligns the nasal framework, restores nasal patency, and achieves facial symmetry. The key to this procedure is to dissect all the…

Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSA) is a multi-factorial disorder, with quite complex endotypes, consisting of anatomical and non-anatomical pathophysiological factors. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is recognized as the fir…

[BACKGROUND] Tip refinement procedures are still controversial in secondary unilateral cleft rhinoplasty. The aim of this study was to assess whether the septal extension graft improved nasal and tip deformity and achieved a normal profile …

[BACKGROUND] Supratip deformity is one of the most common complications after open rhinoplasty. This study aimed to define a new risk scoring system for supratip deformity and determine the distances that should be left between the tip defi…

Nasal septal perforation (NSP) is a structural anomaly that affects the mucosa, cartilage, and bone of the nasal septum, often stemming from septoplasty as the primary cause. Spontaneous healing of a perforated septum is rare, and typically…

Stabilizing the nasal base is important before working on the nasal tip lobule. This will help define the nasolabial angle, the alar columellar relationship and nasal tip projection and rotation. Columellar struts and septal extension graft…

Rhinoplasty remains one of the most technically demanding operations in plastic surgery, and it continues to be one of the top 5 aesthetic surgical procedures performed. The focus of this article is open rhinoplasty, the central focus of th…

Mucosal cysts are rare late complications of rhinoplasty, appearing anywhere from weeks to years post-surgery. The cyst's location can cause both cosmetic and functional issues. Definitive treatment requires complete surgical excision of th…

The use of doxycycline as a sclerosing agent is well-established. Given the clinical efficacy of doxycycline sclerosant therapy, we embarked upon a study to evaluate the efficacy of small-volume liquified doxycycline particularly in thick s…
