ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the technique for unilateral cleft lip nasal deformities.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Through the traditional columella margin incision, the alar cartilage and the lateral nasal cartilage were exposed. After the mucosa between the two cartilages was divided, a mucosa-cartilage flap was developed and anchored, moving the lateral crus upwardly and medially, correcting the nasal deformity.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>52 cases of primary nasal deformities and 18 cases of secondary nasal deformities were corrected with this technique. Satisfactory results were achieved.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>This technique is recommendable, which is more likely to restore the physiological characters of the nose than the conventional technique.</p>
