Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway01:29

Suctioning the Nasopharyngeal Airway

Nasopharyngeal suctioning is a procedure to remove secretions from the upper part of the respiratory tract that the patient cannot clear independently. It helps maintain airway patency and prevents complications such as aspiration pneumonia.
Equipment Required
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...
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...
Cranial Bones: Lateral View01:27

Cranial Bones: Lateral View

The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Anatomy
  • Rhinology

Background:

  • The nasal base possesses a complex anatomical structure involving cartilage, skin, connective tissues, and ligaments.
  • Conventional surgical techniques for nasal base deformities, such as simple excision and suturing, have limitations.
  • Certain nasal base deformities may not be adequately corrected by standard methods.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of established alar base surgery concepts.
  • To discuss the indications and limitations of various alar base surgical techniques.
  • To detail the procedures of alar release and medialization for nasal base correction.

Main Methods:

  • Review of conventional alar base surgery techniques.
  • Discussion of indications and limitations for each method.
  • Detailed description of alar release and medialization procedures.

Main Results:

  • Conventional alar base surgery concepts have remained largely unchanged.
  • Simple excision and suturing are insufficient for all nasal base deformities.
  • Alar release and medialization are identified as effective techniques for specific deformities.

Conclusions:

  • Alar base surgery requires consideration of complex anatomy.
  • Standard techniques have limitations in correcting all nasal base deformities.
  • Alar release and medialization represent valuable adjuncts in nasal base reconstruction.
