Charlin\'S Syndrome Following a Routine Septorhinoplasty

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-associated infections following septorhinoplasty.

Septorhinoplasty is associated with postoperative infection in less than 2% of cases, even without the use of prophylactic antibiotics. However, there is a concern that increasingly prevalent, highly virulent pathogens such as MRSA may predispose to postoperative infections. Over the past several decades, MRSA has emerged as the most important cause of antibiotic-resistant nosocomial infection....

Early Skin Reaction of Polydioxanone Suture Material Following Septorhinoplasty

BACKGROUND Septorhinoplasty is a frequent surgical procedure used for both cosmetic and functional purposes. The technique varies from surgeon to surgeon and according to which suture material is used. While some surgeons prefer non-absorbable sutures, others prefer sutures with delayed absorption. These materials sometimes protrude from the skin and they may cause skin reactions. While these r...

A Rare Complication of Septorhinoplasty

SUMMARY Septoplasty and septorhinoplasty are common procedures. A 28-year-old woman underwent the procedure and presented postoperatively with headache and vomiting and had developed a large pneumocephalus.

Intermediate Syndrome Following Organophosphate Poisoning

Pulp necrosis during septorhinoplasty.

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Bony manipulation near the nasal spine or maxillary crest trimming can predispose teeth to injury during septorhinoplasty, especially when there is an aberrant vascular supply or a highly situated root apex in the premaxilla. STUDY DESIGN Prospective cross-sectional study. METHODS A prospective cross-sectional study was carried out on 438 teeth (maxillary incisors and ...

Rib grafts in septorhinoplasty

Autogenous cartilage has generally been considered the gold standard grafting material in reconstructive septorhinoplasty for volume filling and structural support. In the restructuring of the nasal skeleton, autogenous cartilage can be harvested from the nasal septum, the auricle or the rib, but costal cartilage is considered the best graft material in patients requiring major reconstruction. ...
