To investigate an effective method for the correction of the narrow nostril secondary to cleft lip.
A "bird wing shape" incision was made on the nasal tip to form a "W-shape" flap for repairing the nasal deformities secondary to cleft lip, especially for the cases with narrow nostril.
Twenty-eight patients were treated with this method. All the cases achieved a symmetry shape of nasal ala, nostril, nasal columella and a normal height of nasal tip except for 2 cases with malformation at nasal tip who achieved improvement after reoperation. 21 cases were followed up for 6-12 months with good cosmetic result and no recurrence.
"W-shape" flap at the nasal tip is an ideal way for the correction of mild to moderate narrow nostril deformity secondary to cleft lip.
探讨一种矫正唇裂继发鼻孔狭窄的有效方法。
在鼻尖做“鸟翼形”切口,形成“W形”皮瓣,用于修复唇裂继发的鼻畸形,尤其适用于鼻孔狭窄的病例。
28例患者采用该方法治疗。除2例鼻尖畸形患者经再次手术改善外,所有病例均实现鼻翼、鼻孔、鼻小柱对称,鼻尖高度正常。21例患者随访6 - 12个月,美容效果良好,无复发。
鼻尖“W形”皮瓣是矫正唇裂继发轻至中度鼻孔狭窄畸形的理想方法。
