The adventages of cranial bone graft compaired with traditional method of bone graft are summarized as follows ; 1. easy to reach donor site 2. abundance of materal 3. little pain and functional disability 4. shorter hospitalization period 5. unconspicuous donor scar 6. no secondary deformity of donor site 7. appropriate curvature can be obtained by proper selection of donor site. With the above advantages, we conclude that augumentation rhinoplasty using split cranial bone graft is a good method in correction of congenital or posttraumatic deformity of nose.
