Chapter  Structural Graing of the Nasal Tip 425
https://t.me/medicina_free
In secondary cases, anatomic reconstruction of the weakened or interrupted lower lateral cartilages and reconstitution of a stable nasal tip tripod must be performed for a predictable outcome.
ESTABLISHING TIP PROJECTION AND POSITION
An accurately positioned and stable nasal tip is essential for a successful rhino­plasty. In secondary cases with an overresected nasal skeleton, tip projection is usually lost and has to be reestablished. Structural gras for tip projection include the columellar strut gra, the caudal septal extension gra, and tip gras. With increase in tip projection, a higher dorsum is required, which helps to create a narrower appearance in wide noses. is is particularly important for patients with thick skin and overresected nasal cartilages. e typical pollybeak defor­mity caused by an overresected nasal skeleton can be corrected by adjusting the tip projection. In the majority of secondary cases in which the nasal skeleton has been overresected, dorsal augmentation is needed aer nasal tip projection is increased.
In secondary cases with an overresected nasal skeleton, tip projection is usually lost and has to be reestablished. Tip projection can be achieved with a columel­lar strut gra, caudal septal extension gra, or tip gras.
Columellar Strut Gra
e columellar strut gra is the most versatile and powerful tool to stabilize the columellar base, strengthen the weak medial and middle crura, increase tip projection, and change tip rotation. It is placed in a pocket between medial and middle crura, keeping a bed of so tissue between the gra and the anterior nasal spine. If an increase in tip projection is needed, longer and stronger columellar strut gras are used and the medial crura are advanced on the columellar strut gra. In this case, the columellar strut gra is placed in the pocket and the medial crura are pulled upward in the direction of desired tip rotation and projection. Needles are passed through the medial crura and the strut to judge whether the desired eect is obtained and the strut is then xated with - nonabsorbable nylon sutures to the medial crura.

e columellar strut gra is a very useful tool for stabilizing the columellar base and correcting medial crural deformities. A long and strong columellar strut gra can be used to increase tip projection by advancing medial crura on it.
Caudal Septal Extension Gra
A caudal septal extension gra is a rectangular cartilage that is extended o the caudal septum and sutured between the medial crura. It is a useful tool for set­ting the projection and rotation of the nasal tip. To maximize stability and avoid asymmetries, it should be stabilized to the existing caudal septum with bilateral spreader gras.
As for xation of the columellar strut gra, needles are passed through the me­dial crura and septal extension gra to judge the position of the tip, and then the medial crura are xated to the septal extension gra. If the caudal septal exten­sion gra is prepared from rib cartilage, it can be stabilized to the caudal septum with PDS plates to avoid extra thickness of the columella.

Tip Gras
Tip gras can be used to increase tip projection and improve tip contour. In re­vision cases, shield-shaped tip gras are preferred to achieve tip denition and hide tip asymmetries. If the shield gra is prepared from rib cartilage, visibility of the sharp edges of the cartilage can be a problem in the long term; hence these gras are camouaged using fascia or perichondrial gras.
Tip gras can be used to increase tip projection and improve tip contour. In sec­ondary cases, shield-shaped tip gras are preferred to achieve tip denition and hide tip asymmetries. e sharp edges of the cartilage can be camouaged using fascia or perichondrial gras.
Lateral Crural Reconstruction
Overzealous resection of the lateral crura may result in alar rim collapse because of severe attenuation or interruption of the alar rim strip. Patients usually present with narrow nostrils and a pinched tip deformity. In many cases, nasal airway obstruction resulting from external nasal valve collapse accompany this defor­mity. Internal nasal valves might also be aected.
Weak, misshapen, malpositioned, or segmentally decient lateral crura must be reconstructed to achieve a stable nasal tip tripod for an aesthetically pleasing outcome and functioning external and internal nasal valves. e lateral crural gra is a versatile tool for reshaping, repositioning, or replacing the missing seg­ments of the lateral crura. e gras can be prepared from septal, auricular, or rib cartilage.

e lateral crural gra is a versatile tool for reshaping, repositioning, or replac­ing the missing segments of the lateral crura and domes.
If the deformity is not severe, such as attenuated lateral crura or a missing small segment, replacing or strengthening the deformed segment with a lateral crural gra is the preferred method of reconstruction to establish the shape and stabil­ity of the lateral crura.
If the lateral crura are missing but the medial crura and domes are intact, the ves­tibular skin is dissected o the undersurface of each dome to xate lateral crural gras. Long lateral crural gras, prepared from septal or rib cartilage, are then sutured to the undersurface of each dome to replace the missing lateral crura. e gras are kept long enough to extend laterally to the piriform aperture.

If the domes and lateral crura are missing or severely deformed, a columellar strut gra is placed to reconstruct the caudal leg of the tripod and it is xated to the medial crural remnants. Long lateral crural gras are prepared from the rib cartilage (usually the length of the septal cartilage is insucient) and thinned, to allow the gra to bend.
e lateral crural gras are xated to the columellar strut gra with two sutures about  to mm below the upper end of the columellar strut gra. en the lat­eral crural gras are bent and domes are created with dome spanning sutures. e newly created domes are approximated with a dome equalization suture. is suture helps create two tip-dening points and supratip break point.
Long lateral crural gras can be prepared from rib cartilage and thinned, al­lowing the gra to bend and be used to reconstruct the missing domes and the lateral crura.

In some patients and the elderly, the rib cartilage is more calcied and rigid, and it is not usually possible to carve thin lateral crural gras that are pliable enough to create new domes with spanning sutures. In these cases, the lateral crural gras are sutured to the tip of the columellar strut to reconstitute the nasal tip tripod. e gras are extended laterally to the piriform aperture. e angle between colu­mellar strut and lateral crural gra is kept at approximately  degrees.
To preserve this angle and for the stability of the lateral crural gra−columellar strut gra junction, small trian­gular cartilage gras can be placed between the lateral crural gras and the columellar strut gra just under­neath the suture line
To create the tip-dening points and camouage the sharp edges of the columellar strut gra and lateral cru­ral gras, a tip gra can be placed on top of the junction.

To camouage the sharp edges of the tip gra, an onlay rectus fascia gra or a perichondrial gra is placed on the newly reconstructed dome.
Aer one prior rhinoplasty, this -year-old woman presented with low tip pro­jection, a pollybeak deformity, an inverted-V deformity, and functional nasal problems. Both lateral crura were missing, and she had weak medial crural rem­nants.

e operative goals included the following:
Rene the dorsal aesthetic lines.
Correct the inverted-V deformity and improve the internal nasal valves.
Reduce the dorsal hump.
Correct the pollybeak deformity.
Increase tip projection and improve the columellar-lobular angle.
Reconstruct the missing lateral crura.
Sixth rib cartilage was harvested. Bilateral spreader gras were placed to recon­struct the internal nasal valves. A long columellar strut gra was placed between the medial crural remnants. e lateral crural gras were sutured to the tip of the columellar strut gra. A shield-type tip gra was used to achieve extra pro­jection. A piece of rectus abdominis fascia was placed to smooth the sharp edges of tip gra. A thin, diced cartilage−rectus abdominis fascia gra was placed to camouage dorsal irregularities.
