A technique of use of DERMOFAT GRAFT in the treatment of Atrophic Rhinitis has been introduced. Its advantages over those previously practised emphasised. It is expected that this technique will meet the demand of those ill-fated patients who are looked down in the society and remained handicapped throughout the whole life.
