Epistaxis01:30

Epistaxis

672
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...

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Otolaryngology
  • Facial Reconstruction

Background:

  • Secondary rhinoplasty frequently requires autogenous grafts for volume, structure, and camouflage.
  • Posterior auricular fascia offers an ideal material due to its quantity, structure, and ease of harvest.
  • This fascia is a versatile and attractive option for secondary nasal reconstruction.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the utility of posterior auricular fascial grafts in secondary rhinoplasty.
  • To highlight the camouflage and augmentation applications of this graft material.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical records of patients who received autogenous posterior auricular fascial grafts.
  • Analysis of graft usage for tip reconstruction camouflage and nasal dorsum augmentation.

Main Results:

  • Posterior auricular fascial grafts were effectively used for camouflage in secondary rhinoplasties with thin tip skin.
  • The grafts also served for fill and augmentation, particularly for the nasal dorsum and tip.

Conclusions:

  • Posterior auricular fascial grafts have diverse applications in secondary rhinoplasty.
  • The graft is easily harvested with minimal donor site morbidity, concurrent to conchal cartilage removal.
