Secondary cleft rhinoplasty typically requires large amounts of cartilage grafts for augmentation. The purpose of this study was to present our short-term experience with alloplastic implants in cleft rhinoplasty. This was a retrospective c…

[INTRODUCTIONS] Interpolated flaps remain the mainstay of nasal reconstruction. In this regard Paramedian forehead flap has been combined and modified variously by different surgeons. However, still multiple stages are required to give shap…

[BACKGROUND] Revision rhinoplasty is undoubtedly one of the most challenging procedures in facial plastic surgery. The complexity is compounded when there is a paucity of native septal cartilage to perform the required framework reconstruct…

Despite the great demand of aesthetic rhinoplasty in Asian population, it is difficult to obtain the lasting ideal tip projection along with lengthening of the nose due to the small and weak nasal septum. The shortage of available septal ca…

[BACKGROUND] Achieving dorsal augmentation with onlay grafts presents several challenges. Visibility and warping of grafted cartilages can ruin an otherwise successful operation. A shortage of septal cartilage and rib donor site morbidity c…

To explore the feasibility of reconstruction of nasal tip with septal cartilage and auricular cartilage. From September 2018 to October 2019, 17 patients (two males and fifteen females) with low noses underwent rhinoplasty under general an…

Schwannomas, which originate from Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system, are slowgrowing and uncommon benign tumors. Most schwannomas (90%) occur in isolation, and multiple occurrences are a characteristic feature of neurofibromas.…

[OBJECTIVE] A nasal septal abscess after placement of a dental implant is seldom seen and is usually caused by an infection around the implant. A septal haematoma following dental implantation leading to septal abscess formation has never b…

[BACKGROUND] Correction of secondary nasal deformities frequently requires cartilage to build the framework of the nose. Traditionally, autologous costal cartilage has been used because of the paucity of the septal cartilage. Because of ass…

Nasal cartilage pathologies are common; for example, up to 80% of people are afflicted by deviated nasal septum conditions. Because cartilage provides the supportive framework of the nose, afflicted patients suffer low quality of life. To c…

[BACKGROUND] Although isolated congenital absence of lower lateral cartilages are rare deformities, they deserve special attention of plastic surgeons performing rhinoplasty as these anomalies may pass unnoticed by the patient and the plast…

Despite progress made in nasal reconstruction, the restoration of a large defect, including the whole septum and mid-nasal vault structures, remains a challenge. The pericranial flap (PCF) is used widely for the reconstruction of anterior c…

[BACKGROUND] Nasal septal cartilage and conchal cartilages are preferred sources of grafts in augmentation rhinoplasty. Rib cartilage can also be used, but it may evoke a patient's concerns about a scar and an extensive surgery. In such cas…

[OBJECTIVE] The authors report on the use and complications of alloplastic resorbable plates and compare their use to autologous cartilage grafts in secondary cleft nasal reconstruction. [DESIGN] Institutional review board (IRB)-approved r…

Dorsal augmentation grafts are used to reconstruct and raise the nasal dorsum in patients with dorsal saddling due to trauma, infection, or previous nasal surgery, as well as in patients with a narrow, congenitally low, and/or wide dorsum. …

[BACKGROUND] Silicone and Gore-Tex implants are mainstays of Asian rhinoplasty. Silicone implants are inexpensive and wieldy, but may elicit a foreign-body reaction and are prone to migration. Gore-Tex implants are more biocompatible and ca…

Revision rhinoplasty in Asian patients is associated with problems related to the use of grafts or implant materials. Moreover, the septal cartilage of Asian individuals is generally weak and small, which makes it particularly vulnerable to…

[BACKGROUND] This report describes the authors' experience of "melting" septal cartilage after placement of a septal extension graft in a nasopharyngeal cancer patient that had been previously undergone radiation therapy, and provides a rev…

A 19-year-old female patient visited our clinic for rhinoplasty. She complained about her low take-off point, which was apparent in profile view, and wanted slight tip projection. She refused additional cartilage harvesting from ears or rib…

[PURPOSE] Nasal tip reconstruction is an important component in aesthetic rhinoplasty. Different congenital deformities or acquired disorders (trauma, infection, operations) may affect the nasal tip structure. Additionally, the natural appe…
