Summary
Structural grafting in rhinoplasty is crucial for long-term results, especially with open techniques. This article explores the evolution and application of these grafts in primary and secondary nose surgeries.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Otolaryngology
- Facial Reconstructive Surgery
Background:
- Open rhinoplasty techniques necessitate structural support to counteract long-term changes from gravity and aging.
- The complexity of modern rhinoplasty has driven significant advancements in graft materials and techniques.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present a case-based approach to understanding structural grafting in rhinoplasty.
- To highlight the importance of graft selection in achieving stable aesthetic and functional outcomes.
Main Methods:
- Review of clinical cases involving structural grafting in primary and secondary rhinoplasty.
- Discussion of graft types, donor sites, and fixation techniques.
Main Results:
- Structural grafts are essential for maintaining nasal form and function post-rhinoplasty.
- Evolution of grafting materials offers enhanced predictability and longevity.
Conclusions:
- Structural grafting is a cornerstone of contemporary rhinoplasty, particularly with open approaches.
- Careful consideration of graft choice and placement is vital for successful surgical outcomes.

01:47Primary Active Transport
200.7K
In contrast to passive transport, active transport involves a substance being moved through membranes in a direction against its concentration or electrochemical gradient. There are two types of active transport: primary active transport and secondary active transport. Primary active transport utilizes chemical energy from ATP to drive protein pumps that are embedded in the cell membrane. With energy from ATP, the pumps transport ions against their electrochemical gradients—a direction...

Vascular plants, which account for over 90% of the Earth’s vegetation, all undergo primary growth—which lengthens roots and shoots. Many land plants, notably woody plants, also undergo secondary growth—which thickens roots and shoots.

01:06Primary Production
25.5K
The total amount of energy acquired by primary producers in an ecosystem is called gross primary production (GPP). However, of this energy, producers use some for metabolic processes, and some is lost as heat, decreasing the amount of energy available to the next trophic level. The remaining usable amount of energy is called the net primary productivity (NPP). In terrestrial ecosystems, NPP is driven by climate, while light penetration and nutrient availability drive NPP in aquatic ecosystems.

Primary distribution systems deliver electrical power from substations to consumers through various voltage classes, with 15-kV class voltages being predominant among U.S. utilities. Older 2.5- and 5-kV classes are being replaced by 15-kV primaries, while higher 25- to 34.5-kV classes are used in high-density urban areas and rural regions with long feeders. Three-phase, four-wire multigrounded systems are widely employed for balanced power delivery, using the neutral wire as a grounding point.

01:17Nomenclature of Primary Amines
4.6K
Primary, secondary, and tertiary amines are compounds consisting of one, two, and three alkyl groups connected to the amino group (–NH2), respectively. As depicted in Figure 1, the common name of the primary amines is obtained by adding the suffix -amine to the alkyl substituent attached to the amino group as the corresponding alkylamine.
