Treatment Outcomes of Saddle Nose Correction

Many valuable classification schemes for saddle nose have been suggested that integrate clinical deformity and treatment; however, there is no consensus regarding the most suitable classification and surgical method for saddle nose correction. To present clinical characteristics and treatment outcome of saddle nose deformity and to propose a modified classification system to better characterize the variety of different saddle nose deformities. The retrospective study included 91 patients who underwent rhinoplasty for correction of saddle nose from April 1, 2003, through December 31, 2011, with a minimum follow-up of 8 months. Saddle nose was classified into 4 types according to a modified classification. Aesthetic outcomes were classified as excellent, good, fair, or poor. Patients underwent minor cosmetic concealment by dorsal augmentation (n = 8) or major septal reconstruction combined with dorsal augmentation (n = 83). Autologous costal cartilages were used in 40 patients (44%), and homologous costal cartilages were used in 5 patients (6%). According to postoperative assessment, 29 patients had excellent, 42 patients had good, 18 patients had fair, and 2 patients had poor aesthetic outcomes. No statistical difference in surgical outcome according to saddle nose classification was observed. Eight patients underwent revision rhinoplasty, owing to recurrence of saddle, wound infection, or warping of the costal cartilage for dorsal augmentation. We introduce a modified saddle nose classification scheme that is simpler and better able to characterize different deformities. Among 91 patients with saddle nose, 20 (22%) had unsuccessful outcomes (fair or poor) and 8 (9%) underwent subsequent revision rhinoplasty. Thus, management of saddle nose deformities remains challenging. 4.

The history of aesthetic rhinoplasty: special emphasis on the saddle nose.

The author, after a brief review of the main ideal size, proportion, and units of measurement of the nose, describes the historical techniques employed for cosmetic rhinoplasty. Particular attention is given to Sanvenero-Rosselli's cases. A paragraph is reserved for the history regarding the correction of saddle-nose and the main materials employed for the correction (autografts, allografts, xenografts, and implants). For each procedure, they were mentioned the first time they were employed.

SEPTAL BONE GRAFT

<h3>To the Editor.</h3> —Thank you for the opportunity to preview the paper "Septal Bone Graft for Correction of Saddle Nose," by H. W. Smith et al. For a number of years I have used the technique of filling small concavities of the nasal dorsum with bone and/or cartilage grafts from the septum, and have seen a number of colleagues do the same. As is often the case, I had assumed this to be a common practice. However, before undertaking a critique of this communication, I perused the pertinent literature on the subject and was rather surprised that this technique had indeed never been published before. Dr. Smith and his associates are therefore to be congratulated on their efforts in reporting their experiences with this method through the medium of your widely read journal. This is a simple and easy technique, and is especially useful in correcting postoperative depressions of the

Septal bone graft for correction of saddle nose.

A method of correcting depressions of the cartilaginous dorsum of the nose utilizes the bone from the nasal septum. Septal bone appears to have many advantages such as availability in the same operative field, and ease of procurement, shaping, and insertion. Moreover, there is no need to allow for shrinkage. This type of bone graft seems to provide a simple, safe, and lasting correction of the depression.

CORRECTION OF SADDLE NOSE

Saddle nose is the most disfiguring of the commonly encountered nasal deformities. It constitutes a real handicap in the lives of those so afflicted. Not only are they psychologically maladjusted, but they often experience added difficulty in their efforts to earn a livelihood. They are therefore entitled to as much attention on the part of the surgeon as sufferers from any other clinical ailment. 1 Fortunately, saddle nose is one of the facial deformities which responds satisfactorily to correction. The patient is almost invariably gratified by the decided improvement in his appearance, and his gratification is increased by the favorable comments of his friends. The correction of saddle nose is of particular interest to rhinologists since the deformity is occasionally caused by operations on the nose. The technic for the correction of most of the common nasal deformities has been fairly well standardized in recent years. Except for

THE METHOD OF CHOICE FOR THE CORRECTION OF SADDLE NOSE

In this paper, I relate the results of my personal experience for the correction of saddle nose, and discuss the arguments which underlie my opinion. At the onset let me say that I prefer to practice autoplasty by means of costal cartilage. Indeed, particularly since the war, almost all the surgeons have abandoned the metallic prothesis, (gold, silver, platinum and aluminum) for reasons which are now well known to us. White petrolatum (Gersuny, 1900), paraffin (Eckstein, 1901)—later, a mixture of these two substances—gutta percha and rubber have been discarded for good reasons. Rueda, who attempted (1913) to introduce a bundle of catgut under the skin for the correction of saddle nose, had no imitators. The same may be said of periosteum (Reverdin, 1879), muscle (Vignard) and fascia (Fritz Koch, 1914). All these grafts, as well as catgut, are absorbed more or less rapidly, and as a consequence do not give
