To develop a nasal conformer for cleft lip repair which should be easily available and economical.
We have used 'Luer mount' of the infant feeding tube as a nasal conformer in 14 patients.
Follow-up period ranged from 2 weeks to 3 months. Results were satisfactory in all the patients. No significant complications were noticed in any of the patients.
This nasal conformer is easy to use and cost-effective. Though it is not as soft as silicon-based nasal stent but, it provides good support for maintaining the shape of nasal cartilage.
研发一种用于唇裂修复的鼻整形器，该鼻整形器应易于获取且经济实惠。
我们将婴儿喂食管的“鲁尔接头”用作14例患者的鼻整形器。
随访期为2周至3个月。所有患者的结果均令人满意。未在任何患者中发现明显并发症。
这种鼻整形器易于使用且具有成本效益。尽管它不如硅基鼻支架柔软，但它为维持鼻软骨的形状提供了良好的支撑。
