ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correction of secondary nasal deformity of cleft lip with autogenous costal cartilage framework. METHODS: 237 cases with secondary nasal deformity of unilateral cleft lip were treated. The rib cartilage was harvested through a mini-invasive incision, and was fabricated as a C-shaped framework, as well as some cartilage fragments. Through transcolumella incision, the C-shaped framework was implanted to support the depressed alar and the cartilage fragments were used to augment the nasal base. RESULTS: Satisfactory cosmetic and functional results were achieved in all the patients with primary healing. 93 patients were followed up one year after operation with good cosmetic results. CONCLUSIONS: Autogenous costal cartilage framework can be used for the correction of secondary nasal deformity of cleft lip with satisfactory results.
