  • Title: [Important aspects of correcting saddle nose].
    Author: Nagel F.
    Journal: Laryngol Rhinol Otol (Stuttg); 1983 Aug; 62(8):356-8. PubMed ID: 6633091.
    Abstract:
    An exact analysis of the present development of a saddle is a basic prerequisite for a successful treatment. If the saddle is a mere cosmetic question, correction consists in raising the bridge of the nose. If nasal breathing is impeded, the nasal septum must be reconstructed as well. In order to achieve a natural mobility of the nose you better do not use a L-shaped graft but one graft each for the columella and one for the bridge of the nose. As implantation material the autogenous grafts are given preference now as before.
