Nasal bone fractures are the most common among facial fractures and are the third most common fractures in the human frame. Although many forms of treatment have been introduced, controversy regarding the optimal treatment still remains. Nasal bone fractures are complex, with significantly varying types that are often undermanaged in closed reduction procedures. The authors' experiences with nasal bone fractures have shown that the baseline for surgical intervention depends on the type of fracture and the method of maintenance after reduction, both of which have considerable impact on the final result. Therefore, it is very important and challenging to determine the proper method of reduction and maintenance. The periosteal covering plays an important role in the splinting action after closed reduction, but sagging, depression, and instability remain major complications in some cases. The authors devised a new method of accurate, firm stabilization of the fractured nasal bone by using external pins in those unfavorable fractures determined radiologically to gain optimal reduction and fixation. In the present study, fractures were grouped into favorable and unfavorable fractures, the latter being those that remained unstable or impacted even after reduction and thus needed open reduction. Unfavorable fractures were divided into four subclasses according to radiologic findings: (1) type I (frontal), including chip or tip fractures, which often depress the upper lateral cartilage and tend to sag after reduction; (2) type II (lateral), or laterally depressed segmental fractures with a lateral shift of the arch in fragments or as a unit; (3) type III (mixed), or type II with septal involvement; and (4) type IV (complex), including open or multiple comminuted fractures. After an initial evaluation to determine the fracture type, closed reduction and external fixation were performed for types I, II, and III fractures and open reduction was performed for type IV fractures 5 to 7 days after the fracture. Closed reduction with the use of external pins was done in eight cases: type I (two), type II (four), and type III (two). The mean age of the patients was 27.8 years, and the average follow-up period was 11.7 months. Functional and aesthetic results were satisfactory. This new method for support and fixation is an alternative to the conventional closed reduction and a promising way to prevent secondary deformity.
