Abstract: Pyriform and Paranasal Alterations During Rhinoplasty

چکیده
IntroductIon: The pyriform anatomy is sometimes underestimated and overlooked during patient evaluation for rhinoplasty. Several methods have been described to address the pyriform area and alter its anatomy. Among these methods are placement of paranasal implants, injectable, fat or cartilage grafting, orthodontic management with or without orthognathic surgery. We propose an objective approach to evaluate and treat pyriform deformities in patients presenting for rhinoplasty.

متن کاملAbstract: Reduction in Postoperative Rhinoplasty Edema with Time
METHODS: The deep pyriform space was dissected in 12 hemifacial fresh cadaver dissections. Specimens were divided into 3 separate groups. For group 1, dimensions were measured and plaster molds were fashioned to evaluate shape and contour. For group 2, the space was percutaneously injected with dyed hyaluronic acid to examine proximity relationships to adjacent structures. For group 3, the spac...
متن کاملFat Grafting to the Forehead/Glabella/Radix Complex and Pyriform Aperture: Aesthetic and Anti-Aging Implications
BACKGROUND Optimal aesthetic outcomes from rhinoplasty are heavily influenced by structures adjacent to the nose. Although the importance of the chin has been emphasized since the inception of rhinoplasty, little attention has been given to the forehead. The forehead/glabella/radix complex represents a vital triad in rhinoplasty, from which the nasofrontal angle is derived. In the present study...
متن کاملThe alar rim flap: a novel technique to manage malpositioned lateral crura.
BACKGROUND Alar cartilage malposition is a common anatomic variation in which the axis of the lateral crus lies cephalically and may be parallel to the cephalic septum. Malposition of the lateral crura may produce inward collapse of the alae that is observable on deep inspiration. OBJECTIVES The authors performed the alar rim flap technique to treat patients with alar malposition and assessed...
متن کاملFootplate Incision in Rhinoplasty: an Update
Aesthetic rhinoplasty procedures have increased in frequency in the Asian population. Although aesthetic concepts differ for each race, the current concept of nasal beauty shows a tendency to coincide with that of Caucasians. The ideal, beautiful nose tends to have a straight dorsum from the radix to the tip, with an adequate height. The tip should be slightly more prominent than the dorsum, an...
