Craniomaxillofacial Reconstructive and Corrective Bone Surgery

Abstract

Traditionally, reconstruction of the nasal supporting structure has been achieved with septal or auricular cartilage grafts or a combination of the two. Bone graft nasal reconstruction is advantageous, however, when significant structural support is needed or when cartilage donor sites are inadequate. The technique of bone graft nasal reconstruction has evolved over time [1–7].
