ABSTRACT

Objective:To measure and analyze the morphological parameters of nasal septal cartilage obtained by rhinoplasty in Chinese, so as to provide theoretical guidance for clinical acquisition and application of nasal septal cartilage.Methods:From March 2014 to June 2021, 732 patients were received rhinoplasty in Myoung Beaucare Clinic of Beijing-Cosmetic Surgery. During the operation, 12 mm L-shaped nasal septal cartilage scaffold was obtained from nasal septal cartilage for transplantation. Measurement of the length, width, area, maximum thickness and minimum thickness of nasal septal cartilage was performed for further analysis.Results:For nasal septal cartilage obtained from comprehensive rhinoplasty, its length was 1.2 to 3.5 cm, with an average of 2.16 cm; the width was 1 to 3 cm, with an average of 1.84 cm; the area was 1.43 to 10.5 cm 2, with an average of 4.04 cm 2, with a maximum thickness of 0.5 to 3 mm, with an average of 1.92 mm and a minimum thickness of 0.2 to 0.5 mm, with an average of 0.92 mm. Conclusions:In the comprehensive rhinoplasty of nasal septal cartilage for Chinese, the 12 mm L-shaped nasal septal cartilage scaffold is retained, and the average length, width and area of nasal septal cartilage for transplantation are 2.16 cm, 1.84 cm, 4.04 cm 2, 1.92 mm and 0.92 mm respectively.
