purpose: to report two cases of granulomatosis with polyangiitis (gpa) presented ocular manifestations. cases report: we report two cases of scleritis with red eye, one of them was a 30 years old female patient with saddle nose and positive c-anca and the other one was a 56 year-old female patient with lung cavitation and positive c-anca. both cases undergone corticosteroid and immunosuppressiv...

conclusions saddle nose reconstruction with bone graft in multiple facial fracture patients is a predictable method if surgical accesses to the region are carefully designed, considering the accompanying fractures. results there were 11 patients treated using this method. the male-to-female ratio was 7:5. one miniscrew with the lag technique was the preferred method for the fixation of the dors...

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...

Introduction: Correction of Saddle nose deformity is one of the most challenging issues in facial plastic surgery.   Materials and Methods: In this study, a single structure in the form of L-strut was attempted to be created by using one 0.035" Kirschner wire and an autologous costal graft out of the 10th and 11th ribs. This study involved 13 cases, most of whom were traumatic. The corrective ...

BACKGROUND Although various techniques have been described for correction of crooked and saddle nose deformities, these problems are challenging with high recurrence and revision rates. Conventional septal surgery may not be adequate for nose reconstruction in crooked and saddle nose deformities. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between December 2005 and October 2009, six patients with crooked nose and ...

Background: Cases of acquired saddle nose have been reported; however, reports of sarcoidosis with acquired saddle nose are very rare. The main cause of sarcoidosis is estimated to be an abnormal immune reaction rather than infection. Aim: Rhinoplasty using an autologous rib was planned and performed without plate fixation. Case Presentation: Our patient was diagnosed with sarcoidosis at the ag...

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...
