The Carmagnola statue, although undoubtedly a Byzantine Emperor, still holds its secret as to who it actually represents, and how his nose got that way. Our tentative conclusions concerning the possibility of Justinian's Indian nasal reconstruction only raise other questions. If Justinian Rhinometos did have a nasal reconstruction, how was the knowledge of the technique transmitted from northern India to the Byzantine Empire by the end of the 7th century? And if Justinian did have his "rhinokopia" surgically corrected, would this represent the first case of nasal reconstruction in the western world, 900 years before the triumphs of Tagliacozzi?
卡尔马尼奥拉雕像尽管无疑是一位拜占庭皇帝的形象，但关于它实际代表谁以及他的鼻子为何如此仍是个谜。我们关于查士丁尼进行印度式鼻再造可能性的初步结论只是引发了其他问题。如果查士丁尼·里诺梅托斯真的进行了鼻再造，那么到7世纪末这项技术的知识是如何从印度北部传播到拜占庭帝国的呢？而且，如果查士丁尼真的通过手术矫正了他的“鼻缺损”，这会是西方世界在塔利亚科齐取得成功之前900年的首例鼻再造病例吗？
