Analysis of the causes of unsuccessful rhinoplasty

Aim. To study results of unsuccessful primary rhinoplasty that require repeated interventions.Material and methods. The work summarizes the analysis of the causes of unsuccessful rhinoplasty in 106 patients who had previously suffered a primary septorhinoplasty in various health facilities in Tajikistan in the period from 1 to 7 years. The main reason for the visit was dissatisfaction with the previous rhinoplasty.Results and discussion. After primary rhinoplasty, patients most often had the following deformities: deformity of the tip of the nose (72 patients); deformity of the “parrot beak” type (14 patients); deformation similar to the inverted “V” (12 patients); deformation of the contours of the nasal dorsum (13 patients); defects of the nasal septum in the lower caudal region (21 patients). All patients underwent secondary rhinoplasty.Conclusion. Unsuccessfully executed as a primary rhinoplasty leads to respiratory dysfunction and aesthetic defects that require more complex secondary surgical operations.
