The aim of this study was to explore the bone-soft tissue relationships around the nasolabial area in uncorrected secondary unilateral cleft nose deformities.
Measurements taken from photographs and cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) results were derived and paired up to represent the deformity features of bone and soft tissue, respectively.
All soft tissue measurements were significantly smaller than the corresponding bone measurements. Various bone-soft tissue correlation patterns were observed in different measurement pairs.
The adopted photography-CBCT combined measurement method appeared to be reliable in evaluating the hard-soft tissue relationships in the nasolabial area. In unoperated unilateral cleft nose deformities, bony deformities would decide the soft tissue contours, and soft tissue in turn could camouflage the underlying bone deformities in various patterns and scale, making the external configuration less deformed than its bone basis.
本研究旨在探讨未矫正的继发单侧唇裂鼻畸形的鼻唇区骨-软组织关系。
从照片和锥形束计算机断层扫描（CBCT）结果中得出测量值，并将其配对，分别代表骨和软组织的畸形特征。
所有软组织测量值均明显小于相应的骨测量值。在不同的测量对中观察到各种骨-软组织相关模式。
采用摄影-CBCT 联合测量方法评估鼻唇区软硬组织关系似乎是可靠的。在未手术的单侧唇裂鼻畸形中，骨性畸形决定了软组织轮廓，而软组织反过来又可以以各种模式和程度掩盖潜在的骨畸形，使外部形态的畸形程度小于其骨性基础。
