Abstract:
The nasal dorsum is an important component of a rhinoplasty and may be the primary motivation for seeking surgery. The nasal dorsum is a complex three-dimensional shape that is shrouded by local anesthetic and edema during surgery. This makes an accurate assessment of the surgical changes challenging. Complications related to dorsal modification include imbalances from over- or underresection of the structures of the nasal dorsum, inadequate or overaugmentation, an open-roof deformity, pollybeak, saddle nose, inverted-V, warped cartilage, visible grafts, contour problems, graft malposition, and extrusion. This review will discuss the common problems that can occur with dorsal modification during rhinoplasty.
