Abstract

Many sections of the previous two chapters describe indispensable or frequent surgical steps, whereas many of the next sections of this chapter are therefore dedicated to those particular situations, sometimes infrequent in daily practice, but which the nasal surgeon has to face.

The finishing surgical steps of the BOR discipline are closely related to the fine-tuning of the shape of the osseous and cartilaginous nasal framework. Rhinoplasty is a matter of fine details. The aspects to be addressed have an extreme morphological variability and there are different techniques that can be used for to achieve every single objective. In these steps, one of the surgeon’s most important skills is to identify the residual intraoperative deformities deserving of improvement, prioritizing them and select the most conservative and effective corrective surgical maneuvers.

    An extraordinary surgeon with an original and incisive spirit, Guy Jost is at the origin of an invention that does not carry his name. Working with Professor Redon, he invented the suction device which he modestly called “Redon and Jost” and which every surgeon knows by the name of “Redon.” Head of the ENT department of the Lariboisière hospital in Paris, he dedicated himself in particular to rhinoplasty.
