ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the plasty of the tip framework and the nasal tip in insufficient-lining cases with auricular and septal cartilage.Methods The tip framework was formed by using septal extension graft (SEG) and columellar strut (CS) to construct the main framework of nasal tip,and then according to the size of the graft the next processes were chosen for supporting structure.When the graft size met the tip position,the caudal margin of the framework could be beyond the maximum stretch position of the lower lateral cartilage and reached or was close to the expected tip position.When the graft size was insufficient,auricular cartilage was used to hold the caudal margin of the framework to extend or to heighten the framework further.Refined plasty of nasal tip was as followswhen the end of framework was higher than or equal to the dome above 3 mm,auricular cartilage strip was used to reconstruct the dome;when less than 3 mm,multilayer onlay grafts were used to heighten the dome.Results From May 2013 to May 2015,42 cases were followed up from 6 months to 18 months.18 cases belonged to the type 1,including 13 cases using ear cartilage to reconstruct dome,5 cases using onlay graft;24 cases belonged to the type 2,including 14 cases using onlay graft and 10 cases using ear cartilage to reconstruct the dome.They all got good results.Conclusions To the insufficient lining cases,the appropriate method can be chosen to form stable tip framework according to the preoperative design and the graft size.Then onlay grafts or dome reconstruction technique is used to form the tip.Most of the insufficient-lining cases can get satisfactory results.
