Epistaxis01:30

Epistaxis

Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...
Nose and Nasal Cavity01:24

Nose and Nasal Cavity

The nose is composed of an observable exterior segment (external nose) and an internal segment within the skull known as the nasal cavity (internal nose). The external nose, visible on the face, consists of a framework of bone and hyaline cartilage enveloped in skin and muscle and lined with a mucous membrane. This structure is supported by the frontal bone, nasal bones, and maxillary bone and is supplemented by a cartilaginous framework comprising the septal nasal cartilage, lateral nasal...
Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway01:29

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otorhinolaryngology

Background:

  • The external approach to rhinoplasty has gained significant popularity over the past decade.
  • It represents a relatively new yet effective technique in Greece for addressing nasal functional and aesthetic issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and detail the experience with open rhinoplasty.
  • To describe the surgical technique and highlight its advantages.

Main Methods:

  • A study involving 98 patients undergoing open rhinoplasty between 2003 and 2005.
  • 42 patients had co-existing breathing problems and nasal deformities.
  • Procedures were performed under general anesthesia (87 patients) or local anesthesia (11 patients).

Main Results:

  • All patients experienced an uneventful postoperative recovery without pain or bleeding.
  • Postoperative follow-up at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months showed excellent outcomes.
  • Revision surgery was required in only two cases (polly beak deformity and nasal valve stenosis).
  • The columellar incision scar was imperceptible in all patients within weeks.

Conclusions:

  • The open rhinoplasty approach provides comprehensive exposure of the nasal osseocartilaginous vault.
  • This facilitates the application of modern rhinoplasty techniques, including modifications for tip deformities and asymmetries.
  • The technique allows for aesthetic results balanced with facial features, with minimal disadvantages, contributing to its growing popularity.
