The Pillars of the Nose-Crura Shortening for Over Projected Nose

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The over projected nose, commonly referred to as the "Pinocchio" nose is a significant challenge to the rhinoplasty surgeon. Firstly, we speak about a very large nose, and secondly, we speak about the correction of nasal cartilages (alar and triangular). Surgical correction of the over projected nose is the most difficult and least predictable component of rhinoplasty surgery. AIM: By performing rhinoseptoplasty we aimed to achieve an ideal landmarks position according to concepts of nasal pr… Show more

“…Typical maneuvers used in deprojection have been described previously. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] The surgical steps usually include wide undermining, release of the feet of the medial crura, component dorsum reduction, decreasing the tip while maintaining rotation, excising redundant mucosa, and eliminating dead space. These are effective in deprojecting the minimally or moderately overprojected nose (up to 3 mm), but fall short when addressing the severely overprojected nose, defined as nasal deprojection of greater than 3 mm, especially if the lower lateral cartilages are strong and inflexible.…”
