The operation of chondroplastic graft augmentation rhinoplasty was described in a previous paper by the present author. Seventeen months following one such clinically successful operation, the opportunity was taken at a subsequent nasal procedure to remove a small portion of the original graft and submit this to histological examination. The results of this confirm the viability of a graft harvested and implanted by this technique.

In a 32 years old professional handball layer, the micro-traumata typical of this game led to retropatellar cartilage lesion, which became sympthomatic following an distortion-impact trauma. Since the patient remains symptomatic after initial conservative treatment as well as arthroscopic chondroplastic, osteo-chondral transplantation was performed. There was a good functional result 6 months after surgery.

The latter was found to have a high chondroplastic potential. The factors predisposing to cartilaginification and inhibiting this process were identified.

View Article and Find Full Text PDFA challenging surgical problem is the correction of supra-tip depression of the nose following collapse of nasal septal support. Numerous materials have been used in augmentation rhinoplasties attempting to correct this deformity, all having certain disadvantages. A modified technique is described in which costal cartilage surrounded by perichondrium is grafted in such noses; the results of a small series is discussed.
