Correction of the Crooked Nose

Abstract: Successful management of the crooked nose can be a formidable task and requires a systematic approach that begins with an understanding of the patients' aesthetic desires, expectations, and functional symptoms. Dividing the nose into thirds and organizing a plan to correct each region individually can simplify the preoperative planning. There are two broad philosophical strategies of surgical management: engineering (reconstructive) and artistic (camouflaging). While the camouflaging technique is helpful for m… Show more

“…A crooked nose is a challenge for rhinoplasty surgeons who desire good functional and esthetic results. 28,29 In general, this is attributed to a complex septal deviation, asymmetric nasal bones, and cartilages, but can also be part of an asymmetric face. Trauma, previous surgery, or congenital deformities can cause a twisted nose.…”

“…Specifically, the medial movement of the nasal bone through the osteotomy allows the pyramid to be reconstructed to normal 4 . The osteotomy aims to straighten a deviated dorsum, close or open the nasal vault, and narrow the width of the nasal dorsum 11 . A fracture that is too low can lead to lateral depression of the nasal pyramid, and an incomplete medial fracture can lead to asymmetric lateral displacement of the nasal bone over time 12 …”

“…In particular, medial movement of the nasal bone via osteotomy allows the pyramid to be reconstructed to its normal condition [ 10 ]. Osteotomy is performed with the goals of straightening a deviated dorsum, narrowing the nasal dorsum, and opening the nasal vault [ 11 ]. Eyelid edema and ecchymosis, which are the most common postoperative complications of osteotomy, can be caused by damage to arteries or veins and soft tissue injuries during lateral osteotomy [ 5 ].…”
