Chapter  Structural Graing of the Nasal Tip 395
https://t.me/medicina_free
Preservation or reconstitution of a stable, well-dened nasal tip framework is indispensable for a successful rhinoplasty operation. e structural approach to the nasal tip enables the surgeon to strengthen the tip framework, reinforce the disrupted support mechanisms and control the position of the nasal tip to resist the forces imparted by scar over the long term.
Preserving or reconstituting the structural nasal framework is essential for con­sistent and successful long-term results.
e open rhinoplasty approach provides better visualization without distortion of cartilages, leading to accurate diagnosis and treatment.

In modern rhinoplasty, lower lateral cartilage graing has been frequently used to strengthen and reshape the lower lateral cartilages. Autologous cartilage is the best material for structural graing of the nasal tip.
Various lower lateral cartilage deformities require cartilage graing for more pre­dictable and consistent outcomes. ese deformities can be grouped as follows:
1. Curvature deformities of the lateral crura
2. Cephalic malposition of the lateral crura
3. Weak lower lateral cartilages
4. Short lower lateral cartilages
5. Congenital deformities of the lower lateral cartilages
6. Secondary deformities of the lower lateral cartilages
CARTILAGE GRAFTS FOR STRUCTURAL GRAFTING OF THE LOWER LATERAL CARTILAGE COMPLEX
Autologous cartilage graing is the preferred treatment, when structural graing of the tip cartilages is needed. If available, septal cartilage is the gra of choice for autologous cartilage graing because it is rigid, relatively straight and in the same operative eld. It can be used as a columellar strut to support the nasal tip or replace parts of the lower lateral cartilage complex and spreader gras as needed. However, septal cartilage is oen insucient in secondary operations.

Autologous cartilage graing is the preferred treatment, if structural graing of the tip cartilages is considered. If available, septal cartilage is the gra of choice for autologous cartilage graing.
Auricular cartilage can be used to replace lateral crural defects. Onlay tip gras and shield-type tip gras can be prepared from concha. However, accidity and convolutions inherent in its structure limit the use of auricular cartilage in struc­tural graing.
If signicant support is required, autologous rib cartilage is the gra of choice. Rib oers an unlimited amount of cartilage for structural graing. Long, straight struts can be prepared from the rib cartilage for reinforcement or reconstruc­tion of the lower lateral cartilage complex. Rib cartilage is less calcied and more elastic in young individuals, and this allows the preparation of ultrathin gras for lower lateral cartilage reconstruction.
If signicant support is required, autologous rib cartilage is the gra of choice. Long, straight struts can be prepared from rib cartilage for reinforcement or re­construction of the lateral crural complex.
Operative Technique for Rib Cartilage Harvest
A  to cm incision is made along the inframammary fold in female patients. In male patients the incision is kept shorter, usually around . to cm and is placed exactly on the rib cartilage to be harvested. e straightest portions of the sixth and seventh ribs are ideal to obtain cartilage gras for structural graing.

Aer elevation of the perichondrium, a longitudinal incision is performed on the rib using a No.  or  blade. Another parallel incision about  to .mm apart is performed.
Using a semisharp, ne and straight-tip elevator (to avoid injury to the pleura) the incisions are completed to full cut and a straight rectangular cartilage gra is harvested.

Aer the rst gra is taken, it is much easier to harvest a second, third, or fourth piece using the same technique. is technique facilitates the gra harvest, re­duces postoperative morbidity, and shortens the operating time.
CURVATURE DEFORMITIES OF THE LATERAL CRURA
Curvature deformities of the lateral crura cause an unpleasant appearance of the lower third of the nose and sometimes compromise nasal function. e most common curvature deformities are excessively convex lateral crura, presenting as a bulbous or boxy nasal tip and excessively concave lateral crura. Some unusual and asymmetrical curvature deformities of lateral crura can be seen.
Concave Lateral Crura
Concave lateral crura are cosmetically displeasing and may cause dysfunction of the external nasal valve, resulting in vestibular airway obstruction.
In minor concavity deformities with wide lateral crura, a lower lateral crural turnover ap or lateral crural turn-in ap can be used to correct the deformity. In the lateral crural turn-in ap technique an incision is made longitudinally on the lateral crura, leaving a  to mm intact alar rim strip, similar to when cephalic trim is performed. e cephalic portion of the lateral crus is turned into a pocket created under the remaining lateral crus and xed with two or three sutures. e

lateral crural turn-in ap reshapes and supports the lateral crura and internal nasal valve. is is also a useful technique for patients with weak lateral crura.
Excessively concave lateral crura cause a pinched deformity on the nasal tip and a nasal airway compromise. In cases of severe concavity of the lateral crus, the most predictable method of correction is placement of a lateral crural strut gra into a pocket underneath the lateral crus. Aer cephalic resection of lateral crus leaving at least a  to mm intact alar rim strip, the gra is placed on the under­surface of lateral crus and secured to the lateral crus with two or three sutures. e lateral crural strut gra corrects concavity of the lateral crura and improves external nasal valve patency.
Case Analysis
is -year-old primary rhinoplasty patient presented with nasal airway ob­struction and a pinched nasal tip caused by severely concave lateral crura and a narrow middle vault. Internal nasal examination revealed a narrow internal nasal valve angle with a straight septum.

e operative goals included the following:
Correct the middle vault collapse.
Correct the concave lateral crura and external valve collapse.
Using an open rhinoplasty approach, the nasal dorsum and the nasal tip was ex­posed, and septal cartilage was harvested. Spreader gras were placed into the submucosal pockets between dorsal septum and upper lateral cartilages bilater­ally. Lateral crural strut gras approximately  by mm were prepared from the thicker portion of the septum. Cephalic portions of lateral crura were resected leaving a mm alar rim strip. e lateral crural strut gras were placed on the undersurface of lateral crura and xated to the lateral crura with three nonab­sorbable sutures.

Convex Lateral Crura
Most boxy tip deformities can be corrected by placing horizontal mattress sutures from medial crus to lateral crus. e lateral crural mattress suture is also a use­ful technique in correcting the convexity of the lateral crura in the bulbous and boxy tip. However, these sutures may create a secondary deformity by displacing the lateral crus−accessory cartilage junction medially, compromising the nasal airway. Lateral crural strut gras straighten the excessively convex lateral crura and are useful in preventing or correcting this potential problem.
Case Analysis
is -year-old patient presented with an asymmetrical narrow dorsum and boxy nasal tip. Her lateral crura were convex with a medial angulation at their junction with the accessory cartilages, creating a supraalar notching deformity. She had a mild degree of cephalic malposition. Internal nasal examination re­vealed a narrow internal nasal valve with a deviated septum obstructing the air­way.

e operative goals included the following:
Correct septal deviation.
Reduce the dorsal hump.
Widen the narrow bony vault and narrow middle vault.
Correct the boxy nasal tip and supraalar notching deformity.
Using the open rhinoplasty approach, septoplasty and septal cartilage harvest were performed. Aer mm of dorsal reduction, medial oblique osteotomies with outfracturing were performed to create room for spreader gras. Bilateral supe­riorly extended spreader gras were placed to widen the dorsum and improve internal nasal valve function. Lateral osteotomies were not performed. Cephalic portions of lateral crura were resected, leaving a mm alar rim strip and trans­domal sutures were placed to correct the tip bulbosity.
e modied lateral crural strut gras along the undersurface of the lateral crura were placed bilaterally. e gras were prepared wider laterally, to support alar rim and correct supraalar notching. e lateral end of the gra was placed caudal to the alar groove. A thin radix gra prepared from cephalic remnants of lateral crura was placed to augment radix.
