Article Synopsis
- Cleft rhinoplasty is a complex procedure to correct both aesthetic and functional issues in patients with unilateral cleft lip and palate, particularly in Asian patients whose septal cartilage may be insufficient.
- In a study involving 30 patients, a combined osteocartilaginous graft was used to enhance nasal symmetry and projection during open rhinoplasty surgeries conducted between October 2018 and January 2021.
