Figure 1. Classic appearance of rhino-phyma with a bulbous, cosmetic nasal deformity causing distortion of the aesthetic subunits of the lower nose. Alar thickening can eventually lead to obstruction of the external nasal valves. Figure 2. Transition of the affected thicker sebaceous skin of the lower nose and the relatively unaffected upper nasal skin.

We report here an extremely rare and unusual case of accessory nose associated with unilateral complete congenital choanal atresia. Although other types of nasal congenital nasal anomalies are not rare, however, extreme rarity of nose duplication is worth reporting, as it is an extremely rare type of nasal congenital deformity.

On examination he had an obvious fracture of the nose with evidence of epistaxis and slight deviation of the nose to the right, together with surgical emphysema between the nose and the eyelids on the right. He took great delight in producing the deformity for the amusement of his comrades. Finger pressure applied to the swollen tissues caused deflation and an audible hiss of air escaping into ...

The crooked or twisted nose results from a complex deformity of the bony pyramid, the upper and lower cartilaginous vaults, and the septum and causes functional and aesthetic problems. The forces of scar contracture coupled with long-standing cartilage deformation may make the crooked nose resistant to conventional surgical intervention. The middle vault of the nose may exhibit deformities that...

IMPORTANCE Many valuable classification schemes for saddle nose have been suggested that integrate clinical deformity and treatment; however, there is no consensus regarding the most suitable classification and surgical method for saddle nose correction. OBJECTIVES To present clinical characteristics and treatment outcome of saddle nose deformity and to propose a modified classification syste...

Background: Saddle nose deformities mostly result from trauma. Most reports of saddle nose correction after trauma relate to isolated fractures, but in this article the experience of the authors is presented in relation to bone grafting for the correction of the saddle nose in multiple facial fracture patients. Objectives: The current study aimed to report the results of a protocol for choosing...

Nasal bone fractures are often accompanied by septal fractures or deformity. Posttraumatic nasal deformity is usually caused by septal fractures. Submucosal resection and septoplasty are commonly used surgical techniques for the correction of septal deviation. However, septal perforation or saddle nose deformity is a known complication of submucosal resection. Hence, we chose to perform septopl...
