5.1 Electronic Supplementary Material

A case of CT findings do not correlate with AR: This patient complained of nasal obstruction on the left. It is different from the findings of intranasal adhesion of the right nasal cavity of axial CT scans (MP4 10456 kb)

The deviation of the caudal septum can be detected either on axial CT or physical examination. Caudal convexity recoiled to the left even when pushed with a nasoscope. In addition, this was considered the cause of nasal obstruction. Since the membranous septum exists and the caudal margin was confirmed, it could be assumed that the septal extension graft was not performed (MP4 36848 kb)

The most important task is to find the caudal septum in the tight pocket located after removing the Gore-tex. The weak caudal septal convexity was reinforced using the folded cymba concha with the tongue-in-groove method (MP4 33215 kb)

The abruptly lowered INV angle with a step ladder deformity (MP4 6473 kb)

The patient brought all CT scans; the first half image was the last CT scan before the dermis graft when the nasal congestion was not severe, and the shape was unsatisfactory. The second half CT scan showed improvement in shape, but she complains of severe nasal obstruction after heavy dermis graft (MP4 10420 kb)
