Application of a Porous Polyethylene Spreader Graft for Nasal Lengthening in Asian Patients

Complications of the nasal dorsum reconstruction using autologous or alloplastic grafts: evidence from systematic review and meta-analysis

“…Regarding missing data, eight studies 25 , 27 , 28 , 30 , 32 , 33 , 34 did not report necessary outcome endpoints to be included in a meta-analysis. We did not find any data for important complications of the surgery such as infection, therefore these studies were put to a high risk of bias.…”

“…The middle-income countries reported the lowest need for second surgery with only 1.2% (95% CI 0%−25%), 16 , 18 , 22 , 24 , 25 , 29 , 31 , 32 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 39 , 43 , 45 followed by high income country studies 33 , 40 , 42 , 44 2.3% (95% CI 2.8%−9.5%), and low income countries 9.8% (95% CI 6.3%−27.8%), respectively ( Fig. 14 ).…”

A new technique in Asian nasal tip plasty: Non-incisional double-layered conchal cartilage graft

“…The nasal tips of Westerners are usually oriented caudally, and thus, one objective during rhinoplasty is to rotate the nasal tip caudally from its cephalad orientation in East Asians. 14 We designed a modified columellar strut graft technique using a non-incisional, back-to-back, bent double-layered conchal cartilage extension graft and a pagoda-shaped onlay graft. The method described above for harvesting a non-incisional, back-to-back, bent cartilage graft from an auricle and transplanting it into the recipient bed of the columella enables fine nasal tip reconstruction.…”
