An aesthetic dorsum. The CATS graft. Cartilaginous autogenous thin septal

Reconstruction of the dorsum following a Joseph hump removal can be accomplished with a properly thinned septal graft. This will camouflage the residual twists in the dorsal septum, the irregularities at the osseocartilaginous function, and an open roof. It is particularly useful in those patients with a prominent hump but can be used in those patients with narrow noses in whom one does not wish to do an infracture following the hump resection.
