A Case of Binder Syndrome: Rhinoplasty Surgeon's Perspective / 대한이비인후과학회지

ABSTRACT

Binder syndrome, also called the congenital flat nose syndrome, is a rare congenital malformation with a flat facial profile, intermaxillary hypoplasia and malocclusion. Rhinoplasty plays an important part in the multidisciplinary surgical protocol for this syndrome, for which weak nasal framework and soft tissue underdevelopment have been considered a great challenge. We present a case of Binder syndrome of a 27-year-old male. The nose was reconstructed with a caudal septum replacement graft and bilateral extended spreader grafts using costal cartilage.
