Area of Science:

  • Rhinology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Facial Plastic Surgery

Background:

  • The caudal septum significantly impacts nasal function and facial aesthetics.
  • Deviations can cause nasal obstruction and compromise the internal nasal valve.
  • Aesthetic concerns include nasal tip deformity, loss of projection, and imbalanced ala-columellar relationships.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review contemporary surgical options for managing the caudal septum.
  • To discuss techniques for preserving, reshaping, and reinforcing the caudal septum.
  • To achieve functional and aesthetically pleasing nasal results.

Main Methods:

  • Review of recent publications on caudal septum treatment.
  • Emphasis on cartilage preservation and remodeling techniques.
  • Discussion of a step-wise surgical approach from simple to complex.

Main Results:

  • Cartilage preservation and remodeling are effective for caudal septum treatment.
  • Preoperative diagnosis guides a step-wise approach.
  • Techniques range from simple suturing to complex graft utilization.

Conclusions:

  • Managing the caudal septum is challenging due to its functional and aesthetic importance.
  • A single surgical technique is not universally applicable.
  • A step-wise approach, tailored to individual cases, is essential for optimal functional and cosmetic results.
