Surgery of the nasal tip
1110 001 New Delhi, India.
Summary
Rhinoplasty
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Facial Plastic Surgery
- Nasal Surgery
Background:
- The nasal tip presents significant challenges in rhinoplasty.
- Lower lateral cartilage changes and surgical errors often alter nasal tip aesthetics.
- Comprehensive assessment requires considering the tip in relation to the entire face.
Purpose of the Study:
- To discuss common nasal tip deformities encountered in rhinoplasty.
- To emphasize the importance of meticulous surgical planning for nasal tip correction.
- To highlight the efficacy of the delivery flap technique in addressing tip deformities.
Main Methods:
- Review of common nasal tip deformities, including overprojection, underprojection, bulbosity, columellar issues, and alar flaring.
- Emphasis on a holistic approach to nasal tip assessment.
- Application of the delivery flap technique for surgical correction.
Main Results:
- The delivery flap technique offers excellent surgical exposure.
- This technique successfully addresses a wide range of nasal tip deformities.
- Proper planning and meticulous execution are crucial for successful rhinoplasty outcomes.
Conclusions:
- Nasal tip surgery demands careful planning and precise execution.
- The delivery flap technique is a versatile and effective method for correcting various nasal tip deformities.
- Achieving aesthetically pleasing results in rhinoplasty hinges on addressing the nasal tip comprehensively.

01:30Epistaxis
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...

01:29Suctioning 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.

01:24Nose 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...
01:28Tracheostomy: Procedure and Tubes
A tracheostomy is a surgical procedure that creates an artificial opening into the trachea, typically at the second or third cartilaginous ring level. This opening allows the insertion of a tracheostomy tube, which can replace an endotracheal tube, provide mechanical ventilation, bypass an upper airway obstruction, or remove accumulated tracheobronchial secretions.
Tracheostomy tubes can be made of semiflexible plastic (polyurethane or silicone), rigid plastic, or metal, and they come in...
