The data of nasal anthropometric measurements could help surgeons perform preoperative or postoperative assessments and decide surgical strategies of the nose plastic surgery and related cosmetic rhinoplasty. The aim of the study was to describe the average values of the nasal anthropometric measurements in Han Nationality young female population in Central China.
All 430 Han Chinese young females were obtained for this study, and their anthropometric features were measured including weight, height, 11 items of linear distance and 4 angles. Seven proportion indices of the soft tissue of the external nose were determined. Related results were compared with the result of other available literature about nasal anthropometry in Han Nationality young females from different regions of China and the other racial/ethnic nasal anthropometry in the world populations.
The means of the linear measurements of the external nose in this study were as follows: nasal height (48.9 mm), nasal bridge length (43.3 mm), morphological facial height (110.4 mm), facial width (125.1 mm), intercanthal width (35.9 mm), nasal tip protrusion (21.1 mm), nasal width (35.5 mm), nasal ala length (27.9 mm), nasal ala thickness (4.1 mm), columella height (8.9 mm), columella width (6.0 mm). The means of the angular measurements of the nose were as follows: nasofrontal angle (143.3 degree), nasofacial angle (34.1 degree), nasal tip angle (80.4 degree), nasolabial angle (97.3 degree).
There were regional differences of the external nasal anthropometric of the Han Nationality young female adults in China and the racial/ethnic differences of that compared with the some races/ethnic around the world. This study could provide credible and objective reference material for plastic and maxillofacial surgeons for the external nasal soft tissue evaluation and planning of the cosmetic nasal surgery in the Han Nationality young female adults in Central China.
鼻测量的人体测量学数据可以帮助外科医生进行术前或术后评估，并决定鼻整形术和相关美容鼻整形术的手术策略。本研究的目的是描述中国中部汉族年轻女性人群的鼻人体测量平均值。
本研究共纳入 430 名汉族年轻女性，测量其人体特征，包括体重、身高、11 项线性距离和 4 个角度。确定外鼻软组织的 7 个比例指数。将相关结果与来自中国不同地区和世界其他种族/民族的汉族年轻女性鼻人体测量学的其他可用文献结果进行比较。
本研究中外部鼻的线性测量平均值如下：鼻高（48.9mm）、鼻桥长度（43.3mm）、形态面高（110.4mm）、面宽（125.1mm）、内眦间距（35.9mm）、鼻尖突出度（21.1mm）、鼻宽（35.5mm）、鼻翼长度（27.9mm）、鼻翼厚度（4.1mm）、鼻中隔高度（8.9mm）、鼻中隔宽度（6.0mm）。鼻的角度测量平均值如下：鼻额角（143.3 度）、鼻面角（34.1 度）、鼻尖角（80.4 度）、鼻唇角（97.3 度）。
中国汉族成年女性的外鼻人体测量存在区域性差异，与世界部分种族/民族相比存在种族/民族差异。本研究可为中国中部汉族年轻女性的外鼻软组织评估和美容鼻整形术规划提供可靠、客观的参考资料。
