Factors affecting the appearance of the nose and the size of the nasal angles are different. The aim of this study was to examine the influence of the vertical developmental pattern on the nose appearance. Lateral cephalogram from 144 adult Caucasian subjects from the central Balkan were analyzed (72 male and 72 female), with orthognathic jaw relationship - class I and different types of divergence pattern. The profile type of nose, the shape of the nasal dorsum and the value of the nasal angles (nasofrontal, nasofacial, nasolabial and nasal tip angle) were determined for each person. Subjects were divided into three groups based on the values of ANB angle (sagital relation between the maxilla and mandible), Wit's appraisal, SN/GoGn (the angle of mandibular divergence pattern). These groups are subjects with hypodivergent, normaldivergent and hyperdivergent growth pattern. Statistical analysis included differences separately for each gender between different types of divergence. The results indicated that some nasal forms are more common in certain types of divergence, but that these differences did not show statistical significance, in contrast to the results of authors from other areas. The clinical implication of current study relates to the fact that nasal reconstruction should not be based on the type of divergence, but on other factors.
影响鼻子外观和鼻角大小的因素各不相同。本研究的目的是探讨垂直发育模式对鼻子外观的影响。对来自巴尔干半岛中部的144名成年白种人受试者（72名男性和72名女性）的头颅侧位片进行了分析，这些受试者均为Ⅰ类正畸颌关系且具有不同类型的发散模式。确定了每个人的鼻子轮廓类型、鼻背形状以及鼻角（鼻额角、鼻面角、鼻唇角和鼻尖角）的值。根据ANB角（上颌与下颌之间的矢状关系）、Wit值、SN/GoGn（下颌发散模式角）将受试者分为三组。这些组分别是生长模式为低发散型、正常发散型和高发散型的受试者。统计分析包括不同性别在不同类型发散之间的差异。结果表明，某些鼻型在特定类型的发散中更为常见，但与其他地区作者的结果不同，这些差异没有统计学意义。本研究的临床意义在于，鼻重建不应基于发散类型，而应基于其他因素。
