Asian noses are mainly characterized by a low nasal dorsum, a short nose and an underprojected nasal tip due to underdeveloped (short and weak) alar cartilages. The goals of the surgery are to increase the tip projection, elongate the nose and augment the dorsum. In Asian noses the structural approach helps strengthen the weak cartilages and add definition to the nasal tip. There are various methods to increase tip projection and definition. Columellar strut, caudal septal extension graft, tip grafts and lateral crural grafts in order to elongate the upper legs of the nasal tip tripod can be used. The method described in this article seems a useful solution in Asian rhinoplasty patients who do not want to use rib cartilage. The "Skiff Graft" functions similar to caudal septal extension graft with its elongation and raise effect at the caudal septum. However in cases which need significant increase in tip projection and nose elongation, this method may be insufficient. In such cases, stronger structural grafts prepared from rib cartilage will give a better tip definition and more predictable outcome.
亚洲人的鼻子主要特征是鼻背低、鼻子短以及鼻尖低陷,这是由于鼻翼软骨发育不全(短且薄弱)所致。手术的目标是增加鼻尖突出度、延长鼻子以及垫高鼻背。在亚洲人的鼻子手术中,结构性方法有助于强化薄弱的软骨并使鼻尖更有型。有多种增加鼻尖突出度和有型度的方法。可以使用鼻小柱支撑、鼻中隔尾侧延伸移植物、鼻尖移植物和外侧脚移植物来延长鼻尖三脚架的上侧支。本文所述方法对于不想使用肋软骨的亚洲隆鼻患者似乎是一种有用的解决方案。“Skiff移植物”在延长鼻中隔并使其上抬方面,其功能与鼻中隔尾侧延伸移植物相似。然而,在需要显著增加鼻尖突出度和延长鼻子的情况下,这种方法可能不够。在这种情况下,用肋软骨制备的更强的结构性移植物将能提供更好的鼻尖塑形效果和更可预测的结果。
