The severely twisted nose. Treatment by separation of its components and internal cartilage splinting

O M Ramirez et al. Clin Plast Surg. 1996 Apr.

Abstract

Adequate treatment of the deviated nose requires a detailed evaluation of the deformity present. A new method of component separation with internal cartilage splinting has been used with success to correct the severely deviated nose. The separation of the components allows detection and correction of all areas of cartilage deviation. The internal cartilage splinting allows long-term support and avoidance of mid-vault collapse.
