The primary procedural components of deviated nose correction are as follows: osteotomy to correct bony deviation, septal deviation correction, manipulation of the dorsal septum to correct upper lateral cartilage deviation, and correction of functional problems (manipulation for correction of internal valve collapse and hypertrophy of the inferior turbinate). The correction of tip and nostril asymmetry cannot be overemphasized, because if tip and nostril asymmetry is not corrected, patients are unlikely to provide favorable evaluations from an aesthetic standpoint. Tip asymmetry, deviated columella, and resulting nostril asymmetry are primarily caused by lower lateral cartilage problems, which include deviation of the medial crura, discrepancy in the height of the medial crura, and asymmetry or deformity of the lateral crura. However, caudal and dorsal septal deviation, which is a more important etiology, should also be corrected. A columellar strut graft, correction of any discrepancy in the height of the medial crura, or lateral crural correction is needed to correct lower lateral cartilage deformation depending on the type. In order to correct caudal septal deviation, caudal septal shortening, repositioning, or the cut-and-suture technique are used. Surgery to correct dorsal septal deviation is performed by combining a scoring and splinting graft, a spreader graft, and/or the clocking suture technique. Moreover, when correcting a deviated nose, correction of asymmetry of the alar rim and alar base should not be overlooked to achieve tip and nostril symmetry.

Purpose: To correct the upper lip depression after the correction of unilateral cleft lip, autologous grafts such as bone, dermal, fascial grafts and fat injections or alloplastic implants are used. Transplanted bones, dermis and fascia have a tendency to be absorbed and have donor morbidity. Fat injections are absorbed inconsistently and alloplastic implants have problems such as foreign body reactions, protrusions and infections. Authors corrected the upper lip depression using conchal cartilage graft in unilateral cleft lip deformity and the results was analysed with photos. Methods: 26-unilateral cleft lip and 2-microform cleft lip cases, totally 28 cases were performed. Their mean age was 21.89 years. The male and female cases were 12 and 16, respectively. Under anesthesia (general: 18 cases and local: 10 cases), cavum conchae (n=8), cymba conchae (n=16) and whole conchae (n=4) were harvested. Transversely cut the margin of the obtained cartilage, we cut out the most bent portion and put a partial-thickness incision on concave surface in cases of excessive convexity. Then, we performed the onlay graft of the conchal cartilage via scar revision site in unilateral cleft lip and via the reconstruction site of the cupid bow in microform cleft lip. The augmentation of the upper lip was evaluated with photos. Adapting the baseline connecting between the both cheilions as a horizontal standard line, we measured the highest point among the tangents between the upper lip and nose (point a), the lowest point (point c), the middle point between a and c (point b) and the vertical line from the alare (point d) to the horizontal standard line. To assess the postoperative symmetry, we compared cleft side upper lip contour index (%) A,B,C,D=(a,b,c,d)-ch ${\times}$ 100/(ch-ch) and non-cleft side upper lip contour index (%) A',B',C',D'= (a',b',c',d')-ch ${\times}$ 100 / (ch-ch).h) Results: After the surgery, no complication was found except in one case which double layers graft performed in the cleft lip deformity, the lateral portion was protruded. The upper lip contour index, the difference of A and A' were-0.83%, and thus the mild depression was persisted. Difference of B and B', C and C', D and D' were 0.83%, 1.07%, 0.90%. There were statistically significant difference, and thus the depression of upper lip were improved generally. Conclusion: Authors performed the onlay graft of the conchal cartilage in unilateral cleft lip deformity and found that the depression of the upper lip was well corrected except the uppermost part when photogrammetrically analyzed.

Purpose: Autogenous cartilage is generally first choice in rhinoplasty because of its biocompatibility and resistance to infection. On the other hand, allogeneous cartilage graft might preferred over an autogenous graft to avoid additional donor site scars, morbidity and lengthened operating time. Allogenous costal cartilage ($Tutoplast^{(R)}$) not only have the advantage of averting donor site morbidity but also are resistant to infection, resembling autogenous cartilage graft. We report here a technique for rhinoplasty by using allogenous costal cartilage graft. Methods: Through open rhinoplastic approach, alar cartilage is released from upper lateral cartilage and relocated caudally. After relocation of alar cartilage, allogenous costal cartilage is immobilized by nonabsorbable suture material at caudal aspect of septal cartilage. Caudal end of allogenous costal cartilage is sutured between medial crura of alar cartilage. Tip projection is improved by using interdormal suture, transdormal suture and shield-shape cartilage graft which is harvested from concha Results: No significant resorption and infection was detected in any of patients. Aesthetic and functional results were satisfactory. Conclusion: The low incidence of major complication and versatility of allogeneous costal cartilage graft make safe and reliable source of cartilage graft in rhinoplasty.

모든 환자들은 구순접합술을 시행 받았고 구순 및 구개열 유아들은 악정형장치인 Latham을 사용하였다. 수술의 기술적 변화들은 앞서 설명하였다. Columella 부위의 높은 rotation과 releasing incision은 내측 입술 부위를 충분히 길게 해주고, advancement flap이 phitral column 상방으로 최소로 침범되게 하여 균형적인 입술을 만들 수 있다. 또한 구륜근을 외번시켜 philtral ridge를 형성하고, 작은 unilimb Z-plasty을 구순측 Cupid's bow handle 높이에 맞게 시행 후, vermilion-cutaneous junction에서부터 상방으로 cutaneous closure 시행한다. 변위된 alar cartilage는 nostril rim incision을 통해 동측 upper lateral cartilage에 매달며, Alar base는 anterior-caudal septum의 위치, sill의 설정 그리고 외측 vestibular web 제거를 포함하여 3차원적으로 설계하여 치료해야 한다. 이번에 소개한 Mulliken의 치료법이 환자들과 외과의사들에게 많은 도움이 되기를 바란다.

A total of 21 patients were operated. Via a columellar labial incision, the upper lateral cartilages were separated from the septum. A submucous resection of the septal cartilage was carried out. After rasping the convex lateral nasal wall of the unaffected side, a low-to-low lateral nasal osteotomy was conducted. Along the deviated dorsal line at the bony vault passing the submucous tunnel, a paramedian nasal osteotomy was performed. The convex side of the nasal bone flap was contoured by rasping. The convex side of the "T"-shaped dorsal septum was trimmed. A total direct septal extension graft of the septal cartilage was done and the alar cartilages were suspended to it. The postoperative results were evaluated by photogrammetric analysis processed by a "neon glow" filter in Adobe Photoshop. The distance from the nasal midline to the most deflective point at 5 levels was measured, and the proportion indices were obtained in regard to intercanthal distance. The results revealed improvement in all levels (p < 0.05), although not perfect. In summary, this technique can result in a clinically good-looking in spite of a slight deflection that still exists

The alar base on the cleft side in unilateral complete cleft lip, alveolus and palate is markedly displaced laterally, caudally and dorsally, By incising the pyriform margin from the cleft margin of the alveolar process, including mucosa of the anterior part of the inferior turbinate, to the upper end of the postnasal vestibular fold, the alar base is released from the maxilla, A physiological correction of nasal deformity can be accomplished by careful reconstruction of nasolabial muscle integrity, functional repair of the orbicular muscle, raising and rotating the displaced alar cartilage, and finally by lining the lateral nasal vestibule, The inferior maxillary head of the nasal muscle complex is identified as the deeper muscle just below the web of the nostril, The muscle is repositioned inframedially, so that it is sutured to the periosteum that overlies the facial aspect of the premaxilla in the region of the developing lateral incisor tooth, And then, the deep superior part of the orbicular muscle is sutured to the periosteum and the fibrous tissue at the base of the septum, just in front of the anterior nasal spine, The nasal floor is surgically created by insertions of the nasal muscle complex in deep plane and of the orbicular muscle in superficial one, The upper part of the lateral nasal vestibular defect is sutured by shifting the alar flap cephalically, The middle and lower parts of this defect are closed by use of cleft margin flaps of the philtral and lateral segments, respectively, Authors stress the importance of nasal floor reconstruction at primary surgery and report the technique and postoperative results.

Objectives. Middle vault deviation has a significant effect on the aesthetic and functional aspects of the nose, and its management continues to be a challenge. Spreader graft and its modification techniques have been focused, but there has been scarce consideration for removing surplus portion and balancing the upper lateral cartilage (ULC). This study aimed to report the newly invented triangular-shaped resection technique ("triangular resection") of the ULC and to evaluate its efficacy for correcting middle vault deviation. Methods. A retrospective study included 17 consecutive patients who presented with middle vault deviation and underwent septorhinoplasty by using triangular resection at a tertiary academic hospital from February 2014 and March 2016. Their outcomes were evaluated pre- and postoperatively including medical photographs, acoustic rhinometry and subjective nasal obstruction using a 7-point Likert scale. Results. The immediate outcomes were evaluated around 1 month after surgery, and long-term outcomes were available in 12 patients; the mean follow-up period was 9.1 months. Nasal tip deviation angle was reduced from $5.66^{\circ}$ to $2.37^{\circ}$ immediately (P<0.001). Middle vault deviation also improved from $169.50^{\circ}$ to $177.24^{\circ}$ (P<0.001). Long-term results were $2.49^{\circ}$ (P=0.015) for nasal tip deviation and $178.68^{\circ}$ (P=0.002) for middle vault deviation. The aesthetic outcome involved a complete correction in eight patients (47.1%), a minimally visible deviation in seven patients (41.2%) and a remaining residual deviation in two patients (11.8%). Pre- and postoperative minimal cross-sectional areas (summation of the right and left sides) were 0.86 and 1.07, respectively (P=0.021). Fifteen patients answered about their nasal obstruction symptoms and the median symptom score had alleviated from 6.0 to 3.0 (P=0.004). Conclusion. Triangular resection of the ULC is a simple and effective method for correcting middle vault deviation and balancing the ULCs without complications as internal nasal valve narrowing.

저신장이란 같은 연령 및 성별 소아들의 표준 신장 평균치에서 -2.0 SD 이하인 경우를 말한다. 본 연구의 목적은 저신장 소아의 두개안면골격의 특성을 분석하고, 성장호르몬 치료가 신장을 성장시킴과 동시에 두개안면골격에 어떤 영향을 주는지 알아보고자 함이다. 영남대학교 의과대학 부속병원 소아청소년과에서 저신장으로 진단받은 소아를 대상으로 성장 호르몬 치료 전 그리고 치료 후 1년, 2년 후 총 3회 측모 두부 방사선 규격 사진의 촬영을 시행하였다. 대조군은 경북대학교 치의학전문대학원 교정과에 소장된 한국인 평균 신장의 2 표준오차 내의 아동들을 대상으로 측모 두부 방사선 규격사진을 2년마다 10년간 촬영한 자료를 이용하여 저신장 소아의 연령과 성별을 기준으로 짝진 표집(paired sampling)을 하였다. 성장 호르몬 치료 전 저신장 소아는 작고 후퇴된 하악골과 편평한 두개저를 가지는 것으로 나타났다. 성장 호르몬 치료 후 anterior, posterior cranial base length, upper posterior facial height, lower anterior facial height, posterior total facial height, mandibular ramus length, mandibular corpus length와 overall mandibular length 성장량이 정상군에서의 2년 성장량과 비교했을 때 유의하게 큰 것으로 나타났으며 각도 계측에서는 saddle angle, mandibular plane angle과 ANB변화량이 정상군에서의 2년 성장량과 비교했을 때 큰 변화를 보이며 정상군의 평균치를 따라잡는 경향을 보였다. 성장 호르몬 치료는 불균형적인 성장의 징후 없이 정상화를 향한 성장(따라잡기 성장)을 나타내었으며 이는 특히 하악과두의 성장과 후안면고경의 성장을 촉진시켜 저신장 소아의 convex한 profile을 완화하는 것으로 판단된다.
