A new technique for nasal tip cartilage graft in primary rhinoplasty

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
M N Adham

Abstract

Inadequate tip projection in traditional rhinoplasty led to postrhinoplasty deformity, which with time got worse. Sheen's vertical shield and Peck's horizontal multiple rectangular stacked cartilage graft have been used to reduce postrhinoplasty tip projection loss. The new two fixed column disk cartilage graft technique at the tip-defining points is designed to combine the advantages of both techniques. This technique can be used in both open and closed rhinoplasty, and the amount of projection can be adjusted to fit the dorsum with relative ease. This technique has been used in 38 primary rhinoplasties with satisfactory results.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
