AbstractA challenging surgical problem is the correction of supra-tip depression of the nose following collapse of nasal septal support. Numerous materials have been used in augmentation rhinoplasties attempting to correct this deformity, all having certain disadvantages. A modified technique is described in which costal cartilage surrounded by perichondrium is grafted in such noses; the results of a small series is discussed. The problems of graft distortion and resorbtion appear to have been satisfactorily overcome by using this procedure.

ABSTRACT A modified technique for the determination of the sulfation factor is described in which the sternal end of the costal cartilage from intact 21–27 day old and 48 hour fasting young rats of the Wistar strain is used. This technique is more simple than the one described previously. The precision, sensitivity and reproducibility is of the same magnitude as that of Almqvist's technique in which hypophysectomized animals are used.

PURPOSE: Describe a modified technique to increase nostril cross-sectional area using rib and septal cartilage graft over alar nasal cartilages. METHODS: A modified surgical technique was used to obtain, carve and insert cartilage grafts over alar nasal cartilages. This study used standardized pictures and measured 90 cadaveric nostril cross-sectional area using Autocad®; 30 were taken before any procedure and 60 were taken after grafts over lateral crura (30 using costal cartilage and 30 using septal cartilage). Statistical analysis were assessed using a model for repeated measures and ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) for the variable "area". RESULTS: There's statistical evidence that rib cartilage graft is more effective than septal cartilage graft. The mean area after the insertion of septal cartilage graft is smaller than the mean area under rib graft treatment (no confidence interval for mean difference contains the zero value and all P-values are below the significance level of 5%). CONCLUSIONS: The technique presented is applicable to increase nostril cross section area in cadavers. This modified technique revealed to enhance more nostril cross section area with costal cartilage graft over lateral crura rather than by septal graft.
