Abstract
Background: Dorsal nasal depression can be corrected
by various methods. In this study we aim to correlate the
height gain in the nasal dorsum with a fixed amount (1ml) of
diced cartilage grafts wrapped in deep temporal fascia used
for dorsal nasal correction.
Patients and Methods: In this study included 14 patients
with dorsal nasal depression treated by one ml of diced
cartilage grafts wrapped in 20 X 40mm deep temporal fascial
graft. We correlated the gained height with a determined
amount of diced cartilage grafts.
Results: The results were documented to correlate the
gained height in the nasal dorsum. Results were evaluated
objectively and subjectively.
Conclusion: Our findings show that there is a correlation
between the gained height of the nasal dorsum and the amount
of diced cartilage grafts used in nasal dorsal augmentation.
This preliminary finding needs further investigation on larger
patients' population and variable amount of cartilage grafts
to validate these data.
