Correcting Caudal Septal Deviation with a Modified Horizontal Mattress Suture

Abstract: Summary: Correction of caudal septal deviation remains surgically challenging, given its imperative function as a nasal tip stabilizer and factor in tip projection, as well as its impact on the nasolabial angle and length of the nose. Although various procedures have been devised to repair the caudal septum using grafting techniques, correction with minimally invasive isolated suture techniques is limited. In this case report, we describe a modified horizontal mattress suture to correct caudal septa… Show more

“…Recently, Grover et al suggested horizontal mattress sutures solely for deviated L-strut. 16 This technique depends on the malleability of the septal cartilage in secondary rhinoplasties. A minimally invasive approach is employed, and L-strut is visualized and corrected with sutures.…”

“…The top section of the caudal L-strut was moved toward the nasal cavity’s more concave side, and a batten graft consisting of septal cartilage or bone was placed between the cut ends, then stitched in place. Grover et al 18 described a modified horizontal mattress suture technique to straighten the caudal end of the septum without any further resection of the L-strut using A 4-0 polydioxanone suture (PDS) on a Plastic Skin-2 (PS-2) needle in a horizontal mattress fashion spanning 1 cm in length.…”

“…11). [82][83][84] Experimental and clinical studies found that mattress sutures are most effective at a width of 10 mm with 4-0 suture. 35 Residual tip deviations related to discrepancies in the lower lateral cartilage lengths can be treated with transection and overlap on the contralateral side.…”
