Background: Nowadays, there are few types of research held in Vietnam to investigate the anthropometric index of the nose as well as analysis the structure of nasal tip on ultrasound to identify the relationship between these parameters.

Aim: To determine the relationship between the height and the width of the nasal tip and the structures constructed these areas by anthropometric and ultrasound measurement.

Methods: A descriptive study in Thanh Van Hospital from December 2017 to April 2019.

Results: There were 94 women (62.7%), and 56 men (37.3%) and the average age were 33.6 years old. The height and width of the nasal tip are 10.1 mm and 21.7 mm, respectively. Through the ultrasound, the thickness of the adipose tissues is 3 mm. The width of the interdomal fat pad is 6.5 mm and the distance between two tip point is 5.6 mm. There are the relationships between the distance of two tip points and the width of the tip (r = 0.341), and the width of the interdomal fat pad (r = 0.72). There is also the correlation between the width of the nasal tip with the distance of two tip points (r = 0.46) and the height of the tip with the thickness of the interdomal fat pad (r = 1.23).

Conclusion: The thickness of the interdomal fat affects the height of the tip, and the distance of two tip points influences the width of the tip.

Paediatric nasal dermoid: evaluation and management.

Curr Opin Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg

December 2021

Department of Otolaryngology and Communication Enhancement, Boston Children's Hospital.

Purpose Of Review: The aim of this study was to present the evaluation and current management of congenital paediatric nasal dermoid.

Recent Findings: There has been a trend towards less invasive surgical excision techniques, including purely endoscopic excision, endoscopic-assisted approaches and midline excision with nasal bone osteotomies and bone flap. These approaches allow adequate access for both total resection and nasal contour and skull base reconstruction.

Background: There are recently many studies about the anatomy of lower lateral cartilage (LLC). However, the microanatomic studies to identify the segments of most LLC at the nasal tip in Vietnamese are very rare.

Aim: Investigate the macroanatomic and microanatomic characteristics of the LLC and the structures of the nasal tip.

Nasal tip dermoid cysts that are present in pediatric patients can be complicated by mass effect causing compression and distortion of underlying cartilaginous structures. The purpose of this report is to describe a single surgeon's technique and results of nasal tip dermoid cyst excision in pediatric patients through an open rhinoplasty approach followed by tip reconstruction and immediate fat grafting. A series of 3 pediatric patients presented with 1 to 1.

Aesthetic Plast Surg

February 2013

Department of Plastic Surgery, Cleveland Clinic, 9500 Euclid Avenue, Desk A60, Cleveland, OH, 44195, USA.

Background: The soft tissue envelope of the nose consists of skin, the superficial musculoaponeurotic system (SMAS), and multiple layers of fat. Similar layers have been well described in the neck and face regions but there are few reports of its detailed anatomy in the nose.

Methods: Nine fresh Caucasian cadaver noses were dissected in the subcutaneous, sub-SMAS, and submuscular layers.
