Dorsal Augmentation: Onlay Graing
Using Shaped Autologous Septal Cartilage
C. Spencer Cochran  Jack P. Gunter  Rod J. Rohrich
Autologous septal cartilage dorsal onlay gras are appropriate in primary and
secondary rhinoplasty patients in whom a minimal to moderate amount of dor­sal augmentation is desired. Depending on the degree of augmentation required, gras can be single layered or multilayered in the form of a V-frame, A-frame, or U-frame gra. e dorsal elevation is thus tailored to t the imperfection at hand, resulting in a smooth, natural-looking nasal contour. e indications for each type of gra will be reviewed and the surgical technique described.

BACKGROUND
As the aesthetic evaluation of the nose has become more sophisticated, the need for dorsal augmentation in rhinoplasty has become increasingly apparent. the past, surgeons performing augmentation rhinoplasty were largely frustrated in their attempts to attain a natural-looking nasal dorsum using onlay gras. Synthetic materials seem to give satisfactory results but have not been univer­sally accepted because of the ever-present dangers of exposure and infection. Irradiated homologous rib cartilage has been used successfully, but problems with warping, absorption, and infection limit its application in the nose. Au­tologous costal, iliac, and cranial bones have all been used to augment the nasal

Unfortunately, bone onlay gras are dicult to shape and oen un­dergo an unpredictable degree of absorption by the surrounding tissues. ese sources are therefore reserved for the more severe nasal deformities when other gra materials are deemed unsatisfactory.
Recently there has been considerable interest in the role of diced cartilage gras for dorsal augmentation (see Chapter ), but controversy exists as to the long­term viability of the diced cartilage and the predictability of molding it into the desired shape.
-
Although diced cartilage may represent a viable means of contour restoration, at present structural graing and moderate to large dorsal augmentations are better corrected with a more substantial graing alternative.
Autologous rib cartilage, on the other hand, is easily carved and rarely resorbs, but it does have a tendency to warp and must be obtained from a distant donor

site.
Similarly, autologous auricular cartilage must be harvested through a separate incision, and its peculiar contour renders it dicult to carve into the desired shape. Although the initial contour of the augmented dorsum may be good when auricular cartilage is used, surface irregularities oen become appar­ent with the passage of time.
Autologous septal cartilage can be harvested from the same operative eld with little increase in morbidity and is the tissue of choice for nasal augmentation if it can be shaped into the desired contour. When autologous septal cartilage is available, we have used it as a gra source for primary and secondary rhinoplasty patients requiring minimal to moderate dorsal augmentation.
INDICATIONS AND CONTRAINDICATIONS
e aesthetics of the nasal dorsum and the patient’s preferences and goals must be considered to determine whether dorsal augmentation is necessary.
Dorsal onlay graing is indicated in patients with a low nasofrontal angle, dimin­ished dorsal height or an excessive concavity of the dorsal prole on lateral view.
Dorsal augmentation to widen the dorsum should also be considered in short nasal bone syndrome, as dened by Sheen and Sheen. is condition is said to be present when the bony pyramid is less than one third the distance from the nasofrontal angle to the septal angle. It is accompanied by a narrow upper vault and bilateral concavities of the cartilaginous vault. Sheen recommended spreader gras to support the middle vault area, but if the nasal valves are not compromised, an alternative to spreader gras is a dorsal onlay gra to widen the dorsum and improve the aesthetic results.

Although there are no absolute contraindications to dorsal augmentation, it should be performed with caution in thin-skinned patients, because the edges of the dorsal onlay gra may become visible as a step-o or ridge over time as the so tissue envelope contracts.
PREOPERATIVE ASSESSMENT AND PLANNING
A key component of operative planning in rhinoplasty includes assessment of the overall graing requirements and determination of the potential source of graing materials that will be required. Patients in whom there is little septal cartilage available or in whom multiple gras will be required in other areas of the nose may require alternative sources of graing material.
Analysis begins with the lateral view of the patient’s preoperative photograph to determine the position of the nasofrontal angle. In white patients, the nasofron­tal angle should lie between the superior lash line and the supratarsal crease on lateral view. In Asian and black patients, the nasofrontal angle should lie between the midpupillary line and the superior lash line. If the nasofrontal angle is below these levels, nasal-dorsal augmentation to raise the position of the angle should be considered. Ideally, men have a higher nasal bridge than women, and the cri­teria for dorsal augmentation are adjusted accordingly.
On the prole view in women, the dorsum should lie parallel and approximately mm posterior to a straight line drawn from just above the nasofrontal angle to the tip-dening points, if the tip projection is normal. If a distance of more than mm separates the nasal dorsum and this line or if the dorsum appears overly concave, dorsal augmentation should be considered. If the tip projection requires an increase or decrease, this should be factored into the evaluation of dorsal height.

On the frontal view, the nasal dorsum should be outlined by two slightly curved, divergent lines that extend from the medial supraciliary ridges to the tip-dening points. ese are the dorsal aesthetic lines. e dorsum should be of sucient height to create a distinct anatomic separation of the eyes and give a third dimen­sion to that portion of the face.

OPERATIVE TECHNIQUE
e septal cartilage is harvested through a standard septoplasty approach. Aer the desired length and width of the onlay gra are determined, the cartilage is cut into an oval or fusiform shape, and any irregularities of the surfaces result­ing from dierences in thickness are shaved. e edges of the gra should be beveled at approximately a -degree angle to avoid the appearance of a step-o postoperatively.

To aid in the dorsal onlay gra conforming to the contour of the dorsum, a partial-thickness longitudinal incision can be made on the surface of the gra. Digital pressure is applied along the incision until a greenstick fracture occurs.

is results in the cartilage assuming an upside-down V conguration. Alterna­tively, two or three partial-thickness incisions can be made to form a U-frame gra, or a piece of cartilage can be placed under a V-frame gra to form an A-frame gra. Since they are only one layer thick, however, their application is limited to patients requiring minimal augmentation.
e V-frame and U-frame gras t better over the arched contour of the dorsum and are more stable than a at piece of septal cartilage.
For patients who require more nasal dorsal augmentation, a second layer of car­tilage can be placed on the undersurface of the original dorsal onlay gra. If more augmentation is needed at one end of the gra than the other, short strips of cartilage are placed under that end only. is procedure can be used in pri­mary as well as secondary rhinoplasty patients.

Alternatively, one or more crossbars of cartilage can be placed under the V-frame gra between the arms of the V and be suture-stabilized to them, resulting in an A-frame gra. is increases the amount of dorsal augmentation that can be obtained, and if needed, the degree of angulation of the vertical limbs of the A-frame gra can be controlled by varying the width of the cartilage crossbar. is technique has proved useful in patients with a moderately low nasal dorsum, as is oen seen aer overzealous rhinoplasty.
Once the dorsal onlay gra has been fabricated, the gra is placed beneath the so tissue envelope to conrm the desired amount of augmentation. e gra should be stabilized to the osteocartilaginous framework to prevent it from shi­ing. Superiorly the gra can be xated with a temporary .inch K-wire placed percutaneously through the gra and nasal bones;  to mm of the temporary K-wire is le exposed above the dorsal skin and is easily removed with a wire twister aer week. Inferiorly, the gra should be suture-xed to the cartilagi­nous dorsum.
