Straightening the twisted nose.

P McKinney, R Shively

    Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
    |August 1, 1979

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A dorsal onlay cartilage graft from the septum can create the illusion of a straight nose in cases of a twisted nose. This perceived straightness remains even if the nasal septum or upper lateral cartilages deviate later.

    Area of Science:

    • Plastic Surgery
    • Otolaryngology
    • Rhinoplasty

    Background:

    • Nasal deviation, particularly a twisted nose, presents a significant aesthetic and functional challenge.
    • Correction of nasal deformities often requires cartilage grafting techniques.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the efficacy of dorsal onlay cartilage grafts from the nasal septum for correcting a twisted nose.
    • To assess the durability of the aesthetic correction despite potential underlying structural recurrences.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized dorsal onlay cartilage grafts harvested from the resected nasal septum.
    • Applied grafts to correct the twisted nasal deformity.

    Main Results:

    • The dorsal onlay cartilage graft successfully created the illusion of a straight nasal profile.

  • This aesthetic improvement persisted despite subsequent deviations in the nasal septum or upper lateral cartilages.
  • Conclusions:

    • Dorsal onlay cartilage grafting using septal cartilage is an effective method for achieving apparent nasal straightness in twisted noses.
    • The technique provides a durable illusion of a straight nose, masking underlying cartilaginous instability.
