Photogrammetry is a useful tool to assess the aesthetic outcome after excision and reconstruction of the nose skin tumors.

Backgroundobjective: Post-oncological nasal reconstruction presents both aesthetic and functional challenges. While established methods exist for quantitatively evaluating functional results following surgery, equivalent systems for assessing aesthetic outcomes are lacking. Three-dimensional (3D) photogrammetry, already used in maxillofacial and orthodontic surgery for aesthetic evaluation, overcomes some limitations of traditional methods like direct anthropometry.

Double Lateral Osteotomy: Not Only the Correction of Crooked Noses but a Relevant Aesthetical Refinement in Structural Rhinoplasty.

Background: Osteotomy represents a crucial step in structural rhinoplasty; however, there is not a unique approach accepted. Double lateral osteotomy has proven to be effective in the long-term correction of a deviated nose. In this series, we evaluated its aesthetic value also in non-deviated cases.

Rainbow graft for tip reconstruction in revision rhinoplasty.

Patients undergoing revision rhinoplasty can show complex tip deformities such as asymmetry, dome angulation with cartilage interruption, alar pinch and retraction, and underprojection. When these defects are present at the same time, often multiple cartilage grafts are needed to restore a pleasing tip and functional external nasal valve. This study reports our experience with the rainbow graft, a previously described technique that can repair with a single cartilage graft the above-mentioned defects.
