[The correction of a high ridge and bridge of the nose]

The proposed method for correcting congenital deformations of the nose is less traumatic and its cosmetic results are more stable. The procedure is as follows. After endonasal dissection and wide stratification of the skin of the ridge and bridge of the nose, the osseocartilagenous protrusion of the ridge and the bridge are removed not by depression, but by resection and removal with subsequent bilateral paramedial and transverse-lateral osteotomy of the nasal bones and their mobilization into a proper position. The method may be used for correcting a high ridge of the nose in any of its deformations: an osseocartilagenous protrusion, high wide ridge, uneven ridge after an injury, etc.
