Concomitant Nasolabial Tension System And Costal Cartilage For Programmatic Reconstruction Of Nasal Deformities After Cleft Lip Operation

Purpose To explore the application of concomitant nasolabial tension system and costal cartilage for programmatic reconstruction of nasal deformities in patients with nasal deformity after cleft lip operation.Method From January 2016 to December 2016,6 patients(3 female)with severe nasal deformities after cleft lip operation underwent nasal deformity reconstructive surgery were studied.All patients underwent open nasal orthopedic approach with combined nasolabial tension system and costal cartilage for programmatic reconstruction of nasal deformities.Patients were followed up by outpatient services,home visits,photo e-mails,telephones.Result All patients received surgeries with this approach were observed without complications and the nasal deformities were well corrected.The reconstruction of philtral column tubercle and lip peak structure were obvious.The lip bow were slightly upturned.The nose lateral foot were more adducent than before.The nasal floor were closed.Bilateral symmetrical nostrils,nasal columella and nose median were prolonged significantly.There was no lip nasal vestibular fistula.The normal anatomy of the subunit was obvious.All patients were satisfied with these results.conclusion Concomitant nasolabial tension system and costal cartilage for programmatic reconstruction of nasal deformities after cleft lip operation can achieve satisfactory results...
