Abstract
The authors performed a cantilever iliac bone graft for the secondary correction of severe cleft lip-nose deformities after the completion of growth. For the purpose of clarifying effects of the cantilever iliac bone grafts and the adverse events with regard to their time course changes after this procedure, the authors retrospectively surveyed long-term morphologic changes in 65 cleft lip, alveolus, and palate patients in whom cleft lip-nose deformities were treated with a cantilever iliac bone graft (age at surgery: 14-45 years old). All postsurgical documents of facial photographs and radiologic images were reviewed to evaluate the effects and adverse events. The main adverse events were deviations of the apex of the nose, excess resorption of the grafted iliac bone, protruding deformations of the grafted iliac bone at the root of the nose, and fracture of the grafted iliac bone. Additional surgery was necessary in 10.7% of patients. Postsurgical changes in facial profiles became favorable, measured on lateral view of cephalometric radiography, achieving morphologic improvements. A cantilever iliac bone graft was effective for improving nasal deformities in cleft lip, alveolus, and palate patients, although the counter measures should be taken to these adverse events.

ACTA OTORHINOLARYNGOLOGICA ITALICA : ORGANO UFFICIALE DELLA SOCIETA ITALIANA DI OTORINOLARINGOLOGIA E CHIRURGIA CERVICO-FACCIALE 2018; 38:45-50. [PMID: 28530250 PMCID: PMC5952983 DOI: 10.14639/0392-100x-1182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2016] [Accepted: 11/20/2016] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
Nasal tip under projection is often found in rhinoplasty cases both for congenital or post-traumatic deformity. Nasal trauma may result in alteration of the external and internal nasal structures with following aesthetic impairment and difficulties in breathing. Post-traumatic surgery is frequent, but restoration of pre-traumatic form and function remains a challenge. The present paper describes a new method to increase tip projection by a columellar strut harvested from the autologous nasal bone and cartilage of the resected hump. A total of 15 cases (11 women/4 men, mean age 32.6 ± 12.3 years) of major tip projection/misalignment abnormalities to be corrected by increased nasal tip projection were drawn, and all underwent closed or open rhinoplasty with the placement of a bony columellar strut harvested from the resected hump of the patient. Short and long-term advantages of this procedure are to be underlined. Harvesting is routinely performed during dorsal resection and preparation of the graft is easy. Differently from bone of the vomer or the inferior turbinate, this is cortical bone straight in shape and rigid in framework, and therefore ideal to gain reliable tip support overtime. No additional harvesting areas are needed. Placement of this bony strut is carried out in the standard fashion without additional dissection or further procedures. Long-term follow-up shows maintained projection over time. This graft can be combined with various grafting or suturing techniques usually applied according to each surgeon's experience and the needs of each patient.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study sought to determine the efficacy of cortical tibial bone graft for nasal augmentation. Nine cases of augmentation rhinoplasty with cortical tibial bone graft are presented. METHODS This prospective study evaluated the postoperative results of nine patients who underwent augmentation rhinoplasty using cortical tibial bone graft. There were six males and three females aged between 21 and 36 years (mean age 29). All the nine cases were treated through closed rhinoplasty incisions. RESULTS Nine patients were operated on and the average follow up was 18 months. The results were favorable. The aesthetic results were gratifying; with good nasal projection in every case without any significant postoperative effects or complications requiring surgery were noted during the follow up. CONCLUSION The findings of this study support the use of cortical tibial bone graft for nasal augmentation although further studies with more sample size are required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diced-cartilage grafts have been used for dorsal nasal augmentation for several years with good results. However, compounds such as Surgicel and temporalis fascia used as a wrap have inherent problems associated with them, predominantly inflammation and graft resorption. An autologous carrier could provide stabilization of cartilage grafts while avoiding the complications seen with earlier techniques. METHODS In our patients, a malleable construct was used for dorsal nasal augmentation in which autologous diced-cartilage grafts were stabilized with autologous tissue glue (ATG) created from platelet-rich plasma (platelet gel) and platelet-poor plasma (fibrin glue). RESULTS A prospective analysis of 68 patients, who underwent dorsal nasal augmentation utilizing ATG and diced-cartilage grafts between 2005 and 2008, were included in the study. Although there was notable maintenance of the dorsal height, no complications occurred that required explantation over a mean follow-up of 15 months. CONCLUSION The use of ATG to stabilize diced-cartilage grafts is a safe, reliable technique for dorsal nasal augmentation. The platelet gel provides growth factors while the fibrin glue creates a scaffold that allows stabilization and diffusion of nutrients to the cartilage graft.

Abstract
Our objective was to evaluate the cytocompatibility and biocompatibility of biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) in the nasal respiratory airway. In vitro, the attachment rate was quantified on BCP disks with normal human epithelial cells at 1, 3 and 24 h by determining N-acetyl beta-D-hexosaminidase activity. Proliferative activity of cells was indirectly assessed by MTT assay at 3, 9, 15 and 21 days. Plastic surfaces were used as positive control. In vivo, 15 rabbits underwent anterior nasal septum perforation and 10 septa were repaired with BCP disks. Five non-implanted animals were sacrificed at 3 months. Two groups of five implanted animals were sacrificed at 1 and 2 months. The surface of new airway mucosa covering BCP disks was evaluated macroscopically. During both steps, light microscopy, immunohistochemistry and scanning electron microscopy were performed. Statistical analysis was performed with the Mann-Whitney U-test. In vitro, at 1 and 3 h, the attachment rates were significantly better than on the plastic surface (p < 10(-2)). Mitochondrial activity increased on both surfaces but began 6 days later than on plastic. After 21 days of culture, cells were confluent and formed a monolayer covering the implant even in the bottom of the pores. In vivo, no perforations in the control group closed spontaneously. The mean rate of closure was 63% in the 1 month group and 64% in the 2 month group (p > 0.05). Implants were invaded by inflammatory reaction covered by incomplete differentiated respiratory epithelium. Throughout the study, all immunohistochemical findings remained positive. These data suggest a good affinity between BCP and nasal epithelial cells. BCP could be used to rebuild nasal septa.

Abstract
LEARNING OBJECTIVES After reading this article, the participant should be able to: 1. Understand the challenges in restoring volume and structural integrity in rhinoplasty. 2. Identify the appropriate uses of various autografts in aesthetic and reconstructive rhinoplasty (septal cartilage, auricular cartilage, costal cartilage, calvarial and nasal bone, and olecranon process of the ulna). 3. Identify the advantages and disadvantages of each of these autografts. SUMMARY This review specifically addresses the use of autologous grafts in rhinoplasty. Autologous materials remain the preferred graft material for use in rhinoplasty because of their high biocompatibility and low risk of infection and extrusion. However, these advantages should be counterbalanced with the concerns of donor-site morbidity, graft availability, and graft resorption.

Abstract
It is difficult to reconstruct a nose with adequate shape, color, and texture in patients who have full-thickness nasal defects with extensive loss of skeletal support. The scalping forehead flap is a reliable technique for nasal reconstruction. To our knowledge, however, there have been no reports about a prefabricated scalping forehead flap with a bone graft as skeletal support. In the case reported here, a prefabricated scalping forehead flap combined with an iliac bone graft as skeletal support was used to successfully reconstruct a full-thickness defect of the nose associated with partial frontal bone loss and complete loss of the nasal bones. Acceptable functional and aesthetic results were achieved. This method may be a good alternative for reconstruction of full-thickness nasal defects with extensive loss of skeletal support.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between cephalometric nasal and skeletal landmarks in preschool children. Lateral cephalograms of 80 Japanese preschool children (40 boys, mean age 5.4+/-0.3 years; 40 girls, mean age 5.2+/-0.1 years; total mean age 5.3+/-0.3 years) were traced, and 22 skeletal and 3 soft-tissue nasal points were digitized. The coordinates from each subject were transformed to a standardized plane using a custom-made program written in Microsoft Visual C++. In this standard plane, sella was the origin, Frankfort Horizontal (FH) plane was parallel to the X-axis, and all 25 points were rotated to match this reference plane. The three nasal landmarks used in this investigation were: (1) rhi', the intersection point of a line parallel to the FH plane at rhinion and the facial line; (2) pronasale (Prn), the most anterior point on the nose; and (3) subnasale (Sn), the most posterior-superior point where the columella met the upper lip. An independent-groups t-test was used to test for sex differences of coordinates of the nasal landmarks and their related skeletal landmarks. Significance was set at p<0.05. A stepwise regression analysis determined how combinations of skeletal landmarks explained the location of the nasal landmarks. Only one skeletal coordinate (N(X)) and no nasal coordinates showed a significant difference between boys and girls. The coordinates of rhi contributed significantly to the location of rhi' and Prn (except for the Y-coordinate of girls). Moreover A-point and ANS contributed to the location of Prn and Sn. For Sn, the X- and Y-coordinates of girls and the Y-coordinate of boys were related to lower incisor or dentoalveolar structure of the mandible. It appears that the nasal landmarks in preschool children can be predicted from selected skeletal landmarks, and there are no sex differences for the nasal landmarks in children.

Nasomaxillary reconstruction in Binder syndrome: bone versus cartilage grafts. A long-term intercenter comparison between Sweden and Mexico. J Craniofac Surg 2009; 19:1225-36.

Abstract
Maxillonasal dysplasia is characterized by a concave facial profile and a flat nose. The etiology of Binder syndrome is skeletal hypoplasia around the piriform aperture and excavations-fossae prenasales, bilaterally in the nasal floor-which are pathognomonic. There is no real shortage of the soft tissues. In 2 medical centers in Sweden and Mexico, different grafts were used for reconstruction, but the focus was similar, filling out the maxilla anterior to the nasal floor and supporting the nasal framework to normalize tip projection. The basis for this study was to compare the long-term results between bone grafts in Sweden and cartilage grafts in Mexico. Sixteen patients from both groups were available for long-term follow-up. Simplified digital analysis of anthropometric variables were performed in the short-term and long-term follow-ups. The Swedish group had primary at the mean age of 21.3 years, whereas mean follow-up period was 16.8 years later. The Mexican group had primary at the age of 13.6 years, and the follow-up period was 8.4 years. Secondary correction was necessary in 25% of the patients in the bone graft group (Sweden) and in 19% of patients in the cartilage group (Mexico). Bone grafts slightly relapsed in tip projection and remodeled to some extent in the nasolabial angle. Cartilage grafts showed stability in the tip projection quotients and resulted in a postoperative normalization of the nasolabial angle but developed a slight relapse between the short-term and long-term follow-ups. Both techniques were stable in nose tip-length ratio, and a normalization of anthropometric variables was demonstrated in all the long-term follow-ups. Both the bone and cartilage graft techniques at the 2 centers rendered the intended result of an increased and normalized angle of convexity of the face and nasal tip projection. An experience in the properties and behavior of either graft is necessary to get a long-term stable outcome.

Abstract
In order to provide standard values for craniofacial growth of normal children, we evaluated the growth changes of skeletal and soft tissue cephalometric landmarks from lateral cephalograms of 180 Japanese children. They were divided into three groups: primary dentition, mixed dentition, and permanent dentition. Specific skeletal angles and distances showed significant gender differences with increasing age. The only significant soft tissue gender difference was nose height in the oldest group. Upper pharynx dimension and nose height differed significantly among the groups in both genders. Positions of both the upper and lower lip changed significantly between the intermediate and oldest groups of both genders. Nasolabial angle did not change significantly with growth. The results of this study should be useful for predicting craniofacial growth and development or determining the effect of orthodontic treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To introduce the use of inferior turbinate bone as an alternative autograft for augmentation of nasal tip projection and to assess maintenance of nasal tip projection, bone remodeling, graft shaping, and ease of harvesting. METHODS Thirteen consecutive patients in need of increased nasal tip projection underwent closed rhinoplasty during a prospective nonrandomized study in a university teaching hospital setting. An autologous demucosalized inferior turbinate bone graft was used as a columellar strut. Measurements of nasal tip projection were obtained using the Goode ratio. Photodocumentation and lateral soft tissue radiographs were obtained before surgery and between 30 and 38 months after surgery. RESULTS In all patients, the results were as follows: (1) the inferior turbinate bone graft was easily harvested and molded into the appropriate-sized columellar strut; (2) the immediate postoperative nasal tip projection, as measured by the Goode ratio and visual assessment, was increased; and (3) the tip projections were maintained at the 30-month follow-up examination. Paired t tests revealed a statistically significant difference (P = .001 and P = .009) between preoperative and both immediate and long-term measurements. Comparison of immediate postoperative radiographs with those taken 2 years later demonstrated no remarkable change in appearance of the graft. CONCLUSIONS The interior turbinate bone is a viable graft for augmenting nasal tip projection. Moreover, it maintains tip projection and needs little to no remodeling. The graft is easy to harvest, prepare, and place and can be used without requiring a second operative site.

Abstract
The nose is the central part of the face and the most prominent facial feature. Augmentation rhinoplasty is one of the most exciting and arduous techniques for plastic surgeon and patient. Fourteen cases of augmentation rhinoplasty with cortical tibial bone graft are presented. An endonasal approach was used in 13 cases and an open approach in one case, with a donor site short scar (1.5 cm) in every case. The average follow up was 2 years and no significant bone resorption was observed. No remarkable complications or complications requiring surgery were noted during the follow up. The cosmetics results have been gratifying.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Secondary rhinoplasty on a patient with a middle vault deformity is one of the most challenging procedures for a plastic surgeon. In order to achieve proper nasal aesthetics and airway function, a surgeon most commonly chooses to engraft the nose with a spreader, dorsal onlay, or columellar graft. This paper examines the aforementioned techniques in the management of 25 patients who presented with a severe middle nasal vault deformity. METHODS During the last 5 years, 25 patients received secondary rhinoplasty using triple cartilage grafts to repair severe middle vault deformities. Patients were then questioned at least 3 months postoperatively about both airway problems and cosmetic satisfaction. RESULTS All the 25 patients indicated cosmetic satisfaction with 23 of the patients also achieving complete nasal airway function. Only two patients persisted to have an insufficient nasal airway. An endonasal examination revealed a slight nasal synechiae in one patient, while no anatomic problem was identified in the second patient. From a cosmetic standpoint, a straight dorsum with improved dorsal aesthetic lines and nasal profile, along with nasal-facial balance were achieved. When indicated, secondary rhinoplasty to repair a middle vault deformity using the combination of spreader, dorsal onlay, and columellar grafts to augment the nose has shown to have both functional and cosmetic benefits.
