BACKGROUND: Septal extension grafts are an effective means of extending nasal length in patients with a short nose. However, such grafts can be challenging in patients who only have small quantities of weak septal cartilage, such as some East Asian patients. We developed a rhinoplasty technique using ethmoid bone to create a cartilage-bone complex to overcome this issue, allowing adequate nasal lengthening.
METHODS: Sixty-four women with short noses and inadequate septal cartilage determined by preoperative computed tomography underwent septal extension grafting with a cartilage-bone complex between January 2009 and December 2014. Septal cartilage and ethmoid bone were harvested during open rhinoplasty and secured to the septal cartilage.
RESULTS: Most patients were in their twenties or thirties. All patients underwent septal extension grafting using a cartilage-bone complex and dorsal augmentation with silicone implants. Short nasal length, decreased nasolabial angle and increased nostril show, were rectified. There was no recurrence during a mean follow-up period of 12.3 months, although one patient (1.5%) requested revision surgery.
CONCLUSION: Septal extension grafting with a cartilage-bone complex can be used to correct a short nose, especially in Asians who have relatively small amounts of septal cartilage. The ethmoid bone augments the inadequate septum and provides structural support.
