A new retractor design improves external rhinoplasty by securely holding the flap and enhancing visualization of nasal anatomy. This innovation addresses common issues like flap retraction and instrument slippage during the procedure.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Surgical Instrumentation

Background:

  • External rhinoplasty frequently encounters flap retraction issues.
  • Existing retractors, like double-pronged or vein types, have limitations such as obscuring anatomy or instability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel retractor designed to overcome the limitations of current instruments in external rhinoplasty.
  • To improve visualization and stability of the rhinoplasty flap during surgery.

Main Methods:

  • A new retractor was designed, featuring a wide, double-pronged element and a central, set-back retractor.
  • This design aims to elevate soft tissues and securely hold the rhinoplasty flap.

Main Results:

  • The novel retractor effectively elevates soft tissues of the lower nose.

  • It securely holds the rhinoplasty flap, preventing slippage and improving anatomical view.
  • This represents a significant improvement in flap retraction for external rhinoplasty.

    • Conclusions:

    • The designed retractor offers a stable and effective solution for flap management in external rhinoplasty.
    • Improved visualization of nasal tip and dome anatomy is achieved.
    • This instrument enhances surgical outcomes in external rhinoplasty procedures.
