Background: Panfacial fracture can cause nasal function and esthetics alterations, one of which is saddle nose deformity. Post-traumatic saddle nose could be treated with augmentation rhinoplasty to correct the nasal structure and function. It can use autologous material such as fat graft and cartilage graft. Purpose: To report the effect of fat graft augmentation rhinoplasty compared to costal cartilage graft on patients’ satisfaction of saddle nose panfacial fracture cases. Case report: Reporting two cases of panfacial fracture with saddle nose. The first case, a 22-years-old female with multiple facial fractures underwent plate and screw fixation and nasal fracture close reduction followed by augmentation rhinoplasty using fat graft. The second case was a 23-years-old male diagnosed as blow-out fracture treated with internal fixation and costal cartilage augmentation rhinoplasty. Clinical question: Does fat graft augmentation rhinoplasty result in a better satisfaction level than costal cartilage graft in panfacial fracture with saddle nose cases. Review method: Evidence-based literature searching was performed through Pubmed, Scopus and Proquest databases to evaluate the effect of rhinoplasty augmentation using fat graft compared to costal cartilage on patient satisfaction level. Result: One study showed patient’s high satisfaction level after fat graft augmentation procedure. Another study showed that satisfaction rates were also high in cartilage graft augmentation patients. Conclusion: The advantages of using fat graft augmentation are the more natural esthetic outcome, easy to perform and low morbidity. Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation (ROE) questionnaire could be used to evaluate the outcome of augmentation rhinoplasty with high sensitivity and specificity.Keywords: saddle nose, panfacial fracture, fat graft augmentation, costal cartilage graft, ROEABSTRAKLatar belakang: Fraktur panfasial dapat mengakibatkan perubahan struktur wajah disertai kelainan fungsi dan estetika hidung, salah satunya deformitas saddle nose. Saddle nose pasca trauma wajah dapat ditatalaksana dengan rinoplasti augmentasi untuk memperbaiki struktur dan fungsi hidung. Rinoplasti augmentasi dapat menggunakan material tandur autologous misalnya tandur lemak dan kartilago. Tujuan: Melaporkan hasil augmentasi tandur lemak dibandingkan tandur kartilago iga terhadap tingkat kepuasan pasien kasus saddle nose fraktur panfasial. Laporan kasus: Dua kasus fraktur panfasial disertai saddle nose. Kasus pertama, perempuan 22 tahun dengan fraktur wajah multipel, dilakukan fiksasi internal menggunakan plate and screw dan reduksi tertutup fraktur nasal, dilanjutkan rinoplasti augmentasi tandur lemak untuk memperbaiki saddle nose. Kasus kedua, laki-laki 23 tahun dengan fraktur blow-out ditatalaksana dengan fiksasi internal dilanjutkan rinoplasti augmentasi tandur kartilago iga. Pertanyaan klinis: Apakah rinoplasti augmentasi tandur lemak menghasilkan tingkat kepuasaan pasien lebih baik dibandingkan tandur kartilago iga pada kasus saddle nose pada fraktur panfasial? Telaah literatur: Pencarian literatur mengenai pengaruh augmentasi tandur lemak dibanding tandur kartilago iga terhadap tingkat kepuasan pasien fraktur panfasial dalam database Pubmed, Scopus dan Proquest. Hasil: Satu artikel menunjukkan tingkat kepuasan pasien pasca rinoplasti augmentasi tandur lemak yang tinggi dengan tingkat morbiditas rendah. Artikel lain menunjukkan tingkat kepuasan yang juga tinggi pada pasien augmentasi tandur kartilago tanpa komplikasi mayor. Kesimpulan: Keuntungan penggunaan tandur lemak pada rinoplasti adalah terlihat lebih alami, lebih mudah dilakukan dengan morbiditas rendah, akan tetapi dengan tingkat resorpsi tinggi. Kuesioner Rhinoplasty Outcome Evaluation (ROE) dapat menjadi alat untuk menilai outcome dari rinoplasti augmentasi dengan sensitivitas dan spesifitas cukup tinggi.Kata kunci: saddle nose, fraktur panfasial, augmentasi tandur lemak, tandur kartilago iga, ROE
Objectives: We investigated the satisfaction and nasal airway function of patients who underwent L-shaped augmentation rhinoplasty using rhinoplasty outcomes evaluation (ROE). Nasal obstruction was evaluated using the nasal obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE) and peak nasal inspiratory flowmeter (PNIF) score. We explored the correlation between tip projection, ROE, NOSE, and PNIF scores. Methods: We conducted a pre-and post-experimental study of 16 adult Indonesian patients who underwent L-shaped augmentation rhinoplasty. We used the neurotic scale to rule out patients with body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), and patients with low-to-moderate neurotic scores were included as participants. Results: For all patients who underwent augmentation rhinoplasty, the median score of the NOSE questionnaire decreased from 12.5 to 5 after surgery ( P = .005). The ROE median satisfaction scores also increased from 7.00 to 14.00 postoperatively ( P = .001). The median PNIF preoperative score increased from 92 (70-130) to 115 (105-155) postoperatively. There was an increase in tip projection from 1.5 (1.1-2) preoperative to 2.05 (1.8-2.5) postoperative. There was a significant correlation between ∆ tip projection and ∆ NOSE ( P = .048), with a moderate correlation ( r = .502). However, there was no significant correlation between ∆ tip projection and ∆ PNIF ( P = .080) and ∆ ROE ( P = .302). Conclusion: The increase in ROE and PNIF, and the decrease in NOSE score after surgery revealed that the augmented L-shaped rhinoplasty technique has high satisfaction rates in both the nasal esthetics and functions of patients. The tip projection increment was proven to elevate nasal function subjectively in a certain range of tip height difference evaluated by the NOSE score.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
