Abstract:
Rhinoplasty in atrophic rhinitis is a difficult surgery because the dorsal skin is adherent to the underlying structures. There is also more chance of postoperative injection. Our experience of various types of rhinoplasly in 25 atrophic rhinitis patients are presented here. The patients were from the age group 16 to 35 years. Most of the operations were done under local anaesthesia. Commonest graft used was conchal cartilage. Bone graft was avoided for augmentation because of its high rate of absorption in atrophic rhinitis. In 10 patients Young's operation was done in one side along with rhinoplasty. Young's operation was done only with skin layer.
