Chapter  Structural Graing of the Nasal Tip 405
https://t.me/medicina_free
Unusual and Asymmetrical Curvature Deformities of the Lateral Crura
Although the most common curvature deformities of the lateral crura are convex lateral crura and concave lateral crura, rare curvature deformities can be seen. In some patients the lateral crura shape can be congenitally asymmetrical. Most of these deformities are easy to correct with judicious use of lateral crural strut gras.
In some patients, a portion of the lateral crus is convex, whereas other parts can be concave, creating an S-shaped curvature.
Lateral crural strut gras are the most versatile method for correcting these de­formities.
Lateral crural strut gras are indicated for correction of concave lateral crura, a boxy tip, cephalic malposition of the lateral crura, alar rim retraction, and strengthening of weak lateral crura.

CEPHALIC MALPOSITION OF THE LATERAL CRURA
In cephalic malposition of the lateral crura, the lateral crus has a cephalic orien­tation and the alar rim is unsupported, causing a parenthesis deformity of the nasal tip. e malpositioned lateral crus does not parallel the alar rim. e degree of cephalic malposition may range from mild to severe. In mild and moderate malpositions, a modied lateral crural strut gra that is wider laterally can be placed parallel to the alar rim without caudal transposition of lateral crura. e gra supports the alar rim and corrects alar notching. In severe cephalic mal­positions, lateral crural transposition is the method of treatment. In this tech­nique, the malpositioned lateral crus is separated from the accessory cartilages and transposed caudally. If the lateral crus lacks length and/or strength, the lat­eral crus must be strengthened and elongated with a lateral crural strut gra for a predictable reconstruction. e lateral end of the gra is placed in a pocket undermined caudal to the accessory cartilages.
Case Analysis
is -year-old patient requested correction of her dorsal hump and the severe cephalic malposition of the lateral crura.

e operative goals included the following:
Reduce the dorsal hump.
Perform caudal transposition of the cephalic malpositioned lateral crura to improve the nasal tip.
e lateral crura were separated from the accessory cartilages. Lateral crural strut gras created from septal cartilage were placed underneath the lateral crura, and the lateral crura were transposed caudally. e lateral end of the gra was placed in a pocket undermined caudal to the accessory cartilages.

WEAK LOWER LATERAL CARTILAGES
e length and strength of the medial crura is critical for tip projection and de­nition. Short, weak medial crura can lead to loss of supratip denition, because there is less of a dierential between the dorsal height and the domal peaks.
Nasal tip denition is lost in patients with thin and weak lower lateral cartilages. is is particularly important in cases with thick nasal tip skin. e structural approach helps strengthen the weak cartilages and add denition to the nasal tip.
e columellar strut gra is probably the most oen used gra in rhinoplasty. Columellar strut gras strengthen the existing tip support, provide stability, and increase tip projection when the medial crura are advanced on it. e columel­lar strut gra is also useful in changing the columellar-lobular angle, controlling the length of the medial or middle crural segments and correcting intercrural deformities or asymmetries of the lateral crura.
If a signicant increase in tip projection is needed, advancing the lateral crura medially with a spanning suture (lateral crural steal) and the simultaneous use of a long, strong columellar strut gra produce consistent results. Strong columel­lar strut gras can be prepared from the thicker portions of the septal cartilage. In primary rhinoplasty patients who do not have strong septal cartilage and in secondary rhinoplasty patients without sucient septal cartilage for harvest, the columellar strut gra can be fabricated from rib cartilage. Warping can be mini­mized by performing symmetrical balanced carving of the gra from the central core of the cartilage.

e columellar strut gra is placed between the medial crura, and the medial crura are advanced on the columellar strut gra with nonabsorbable sutures to achieve the desired tip projection. Long columellar strut gras prepared from rib cartilage can be axed to the anterior nasal spine for stability of the recon­struction.
Aer the columellar strut gra is placed, if additional increase in tip projection and further renement are needed, a tip gra can be used to increase tip pro­jection and improve tip contour. Shield-type tip gras are particularly useful in patients with a short infratip lobule and in secondary cases.
Another eective method for increasing tip projection and adjusting tip position is the caudal septal extension gra. It is a rectangular gra placed caudal to the existing caudal septum and is stabilized with splinting gras or distally extended spreader gras. en the medial crura are sutured to the caudal margin of the gra to achieve the desired tip projection and rotation.
If the lateral crura are congenitally weak, structural graing should be consid­ered. In the presence of a weak lateral crus, any surgical intervention may accen­tuate or cause external nasal valve collapse. In mild cases, a lateral crural turn­in ap can be used to support the lateral crus. Alar contour gras are another method to reinforce the alar rim in cases of mild to moderate weakness of the lateral crura. e lateral crural strut gra is the most eective method for sup­porting a weak lateral crus, adding stability to the nostril rim and external nasal valve.

For narrow, weak domes, a subdomal gra can be placed in a pocket under the dome to strengthen and widen the domes. In rare cases of weak middle crura, a rectangular cartilage can be placed under the middle crura to buttress them.

rims were not well supported and domes were weak and pointed. Internal nasal examination revealed a deviated septum obstructing the airway.
e operative goals included the following:
Correct the septal deviation.
Reduce the dorsal hump.
Rene the dorsal aesthetic lines.
Increase tip projection and improve the nasolabial angle.
Support the weak domes and lateral crura.
Using the open rhinoplasty approach, septoplasty and septal cartilage harvest were performed. e bony and cartilaginous hump were reduced and medial oblique and lateral osteotomies were performed. Spreader aps were used to es­tablish the cartilaginous dorsum.
To increase tip projection, the lateral crura were advanced medially with span­ning sutures. A long columellar strut gra was prepared from the harvested septum and the medial crura were advanced on the columellar strut gra with three sutures.
A subdomal gra was placed to reinforce and widen the weak domes. A thin on­lay tip gra was placed for further increase in tip projection. Alar contour gras were placed bilaterally to support alar rims.
