  • Title: Septorhinoplasty in the Pediatric Patient.
    Author: Bhuskute A, Sumiyoshi M, Senders C.
    Journal: Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am; 2016 Aug; 24(3):245-53. PubMed ID: 27400839.
    Abstract:
    Pediatric septorhinoplasty has been an area of controversy because early surgical intervention can prevent normal growth. There are certain conditions where early correction of the nose is indicated, such as in cleft lip nasal deformities, severe traumatic deformities, and congenital nasal lesions. Animal and clinical studies have been helpful in elucidating certain areas of the nose that are potential growth zones that should be left undisturbed when performing nasal surgeries on pediatric patients. We discuss the timing, indications, and surgical technique in pediatric septorhinoplasty.
