The lateral crus plays a significant role in the aesthetic appearance of the nose. Excessive concavities of the lower lateral crura can lead to heavy aesthetic disfigurement of the nasal tip and to insufficiencies of the external nasal valve. The lateral crus of the alar cartilage may also cause a concavity of the alar rim and even collapse of the alar rim in severe cases. Surgical techniques performed on the lateral crus help to treat both functional and aesthetic deformities of the lateral nasal tip. We present a reverse plasty technique for the lateral crus, and we evaluated the advantages and disadvantages of the technique.
外侧脚在鼻子的美学外观中起着重要作用。下外侧脚过度凹陷会导致鼻尖严重的美学缺陷以及鼻外阀功能不全。鼻翼软骨的外侧脚在严重情况下还可能导致鼻翼缘凹陷甚至鼻翼缘塌陷。对外侧脚实施的手术技术有助于治疗鼻尖外侧的功能和美学畸形。我们介绍一种外侧脚的反向整形技术，并评估了该技术的优缺点。
