ABSTRACT
Objective:
To explore the application of expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) as the main support combined with a small amount of ear cartilage in rhinoplasty.Methods:
Through a nasal opening approach, the ePTFE was used as a support implant for the nasal dorsum and columella, and unilateral concha cartilage was used as a nasal tip modification graft.Results:
This method was applied in 56 cases of rhinoplasty (36 cases of initial nose, 20 cases of silicone augmentation rhinoplasty). The wounds of 55 patients healed at one stage without complications, with satisfactory results (average follow-up of 6 months). In one case, nasal mucosa was damaged early after surgery, and the ePTFE was partially exposed, which healed after debridement and suture.Conclusions:
For most primary rhinoplasty and simple repair of the nose, using ePTFE as the main support combined with a small amount of ear cartilage, has the advantages of fewer materials, rapid surgery, mild trauma, and stable postoperative results.
