The current techniques in dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty: a comprehensive review. Maxillofac Plast Reconstr Surg 2024; 46:16. [PMID: 38678507 PMCID: PMC11056355 DOI: 10.1186/s40902-024-00418-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/01/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND An essential aspect of rhinoplasty is the enhancement of the nasal dorsal contour by performing dorsal augmentation (DA) rhinoplasty. A wide range of techniques are available for DA as the demand for aesthetic nasal refinement grows. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current techniques used in DA rhinoplasty. MAIN BODY Research articles on DA rhinoplasty techniques were identified through a comprehensive literature search. Scopus, PubMed, and Web of Science were used as electronic databases. Each database was searched for articles published since its inception. DA rhinoplasty techniques were examined in this literature review. Methodological quality was assessed for the selected studies, and data was extracted to examine materials used, surgical approaches, and reported outcomes for each technique. Various DA methods, including autologous grafts and synthetic implants, are examined in-depth in this review. Comparing approaches can help better understand their respective advantages and limitations. CONCLUSION A wealth of techniques is available for DA rhinoplasty, each with advantages. Patients' nasal anatomy, desired outcomes, and potential risks must be considered by surgeons when determining their surgical approach. DA methods continue to evolve rapidly, creating a need for a thorough understanding of the current landscape to make informed decisions.

Ozdemır M, Akkoç MF, Tunık S. Investigation of Two New Grafting Techniques for Dorsal Augmentation Rhinoplasty: An Experimental Study with New Zealand White Rabbits. Aesthetic Plast Surg 2024:10.1007/s00266-024-03949-8. [PMID: 38532200 DOI: 10.1007/s00266-024-03949-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2023] [Accepted: 02/21/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cartilage is an important source in supporting the structure of the nose for dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty. However, it is known that its viability is not always on the ideal level. Various wrapping materials are used to increase the strength of cartilage. Donor site morbidity, which develops following the harvesting of both cartilage and fascia as one such cover material, has attracted interest in recent years. OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to investigate the potential of dermis and tendon autografts as alternatives to fascia and cartilage. MATERIAL AND METHOD The sample of the study included 16 New Zealand white rabbits. The right auricular cartilage of all rabbits was amputated, and it was transformed into diced cartilage autografts. The dermis autografts from the right gluteal areas of the rabbits were deepithelialized, and lumbosacral fascia autografts were harvested from the same incision. Additionally, the Achilles tendon of each rabbit was harvested and transformed into diced tendon autografts. Four different autografts were embedded under the skin of each rabbit from 4 different pouches opened in the back of the rabbit. These autografts included diced cartilage alone (Intervention 1), fascia-wrapped cartilage (Intervention 2), dermis-wrapped cartilage (Intervention 3) and fascia-wrapped tendon (Intervention 4) autografts. RESULTS Intervention 1 had the most irregular appearance, the outcomes in Intervention 4 were volumetrically smaller and softer. Connective tissue formed between the diced pieces in all interventions, and it was observed that the dermis and fascia had a capsule-like appearance, and their viability was preserved. The differences between the initial and final measurements of the volumes of interventions 1, 2 and 3 were statistically significant (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the initial and final volumetric measurements of intervention 4 (p > 0.05). More peripheral proliferation was observed in the interventions of fascia-wrapped and dermis-wrapped diced cartilage compared to the other interventions. The intervention including fascia-wrapped diced tendon grafts had displayed more fibrosis, fragmentation and collagen fibers, while it showed a lower amount of elastic fiber. There were no significant differences among the intervention in terms of other histological parameters. CONCLUSION Tendon autografts may be a good option for dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty as they are easily harvested and have minimal donor site morbidity. Dermis autograft usage is more advantageous than fascia usage in terms of accessibility and convenience.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Augmentation and coverage of irregularities of the nasal dorsum remain a challenge in rhinoplasty. Different techniques have been described in the current literature for this purpose. The aim of this study is to assess and illustrate the author experience and outcomes using the posterior auricular fascia graft (PAFG) for dorsal camouflage and augmentation in primary and revision rhinoplasty. MATERIAL AND METHODS A prospective bicentric study was conducted, including patients with slight dorsal deficiencies and/or with dorsal irregularities following hump resection, trauma or previous rhinoplasty receiving PAFG to improve the rhinoplasty outcome. To objectively assess the graft resorption rate, MRI was performed 2 weeks and 18 months after surgery. To investigate patient satisfaction, the preoperative and 1-year postoperative scores obtained using the rhinoplasty outcomes evaluation (ROE) scale were compared. The scores following a normal distribution obtained for each patient were compared using a paired t-test. RESULTS Forty-five patients were enroled in this study. Average follow-up duration was 35.4 months. Patients' age ranged from 17 to 57 years. No cases of infection or major graft resorption were observed. No postoperative scars were visible at the donor site. All patients were satisfied after surgery, and a statistically significant difference between pre- and postoperative scores (p<0.0001) was observed. CONCLUSION This study showed that PAFG is a reliable technique for dorsal camouflage and slight augmentation in primary and revision rhinoplasty. The procedure is safe, easy and quick and only requires a small learning curve. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE II This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

Tissue Eng Regen Med 2023; 20:285-294. [PMID: 36592327 PMCID: PMC10070587 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-022-00499-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Revised: 09/22/2022] [Accepted: 10/04/2022] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The phenotype maintenance of diced cartilage is a very important factor to reduce cartilage absorption rate in augmentation rhinoplasty. A novel method which combined diced cartilage with chondrocyte spheroids in gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogel may have potentially good performance in phenotype maintenance, and is worth exploring. METHODS The complex grafts formed by loading diced cartilage with chondrocyte spheroids into GelMA hydrogel were used as the experimental group, and the grafts formed of diced cartilage in GelMA were used as the control group. The two groups of grafts were implanted subcutaneously in nude mice. After 1 month and 3 months, the grafts were taken for general observation and histological analysis. The diameter changes of cartilage, the nuclei loss of chondrocyte, and glycosaminoglycan secretion were analyzed. RESULTS Chondrocyte spheroids with obvious proliferation can be seen in the experimental group. Some diced cartilages had become a whole through the interconnection of chondrocyte spheroids. In addition, the diameter of the chondrocyte spheroids-diced cartilage complex in the experimental group increased significantly, and its nuclei loss rate was less than 1/2 of that in the control group. The maintenance of proteoglycans in diced cartilages in the experimental group was significantly better than that in the control group. CONCLUSION The combination of diced cartilage with chondrocyte spheroids in GelMA hydrogel can significantly reduce the absorption of cartilage extracellular matrix, enhance phenotype maintenance during subcutaneous ectopic implantation, and can produce inter-chondral connections.

Abstract
Objectives: This study explored the effect of adipose-derived stromal vascular fractions (SVFs) on angiogenesis in injected autologous diced cartilage. Methods: Stromal vascular fractions were extracted by enzymatic digestion. Cartilage grafts were harvested from 1 side of the auricular cartilage of New Zealand rabbit and then diced to a size of 1.0 mm3. The grafts were divided into 2 groups. The control group was diced cartilage mixed with culture medium, and the experimental group was diced cartilage mixed with SVFs. The 2 groups of composite grafts were subcutaneously implanted on both sides of the back of each rabbit. After 4, 12 and 24 weeks, the tissue structure, number of blood vessels, and angiogenic factors in the grafts were observed. Results: The SVFs conformed to the current standard of the biological evaluation. Under an inverted microscope, the number of layers of chondrocytes in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group at 4 weeks. A small number of inflammatory cells and blood vessels were observed around the cartilage grafts. At 12 and 24 weeks, the volume of tissue was increased gradually by general observation. And a large number of chondrocytes were observed microscopically, whereas the number of inflammatory cells decreased. And meanwhile additional new blood vessels were observed. Immunohistochemical analysis of CD31 showed that the number of capillaries in the control group was significantly lower than that in the experimental group at 4, 12 and 24 weeks. Further, the expression of Hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mRNA and protein were measured by RT-PCR and Western bloting, respectively. The results showed that the mRNA expression of VEGF and HIF-1α in the experimental group was increased. The mRNA level remained higher than that of the control group at 24 weeks (P < 0.05). And the relative expression levels of VEGF and HIF-1α protein in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group at 4, 12 and 24 weeks (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Autologous diced cartilage mixed with adipose-derived SVFs can promote angiogenesis when transplanted by injection. Further research showed that SVFs could increase the expression levels of VEGF and HIF-1α in the grafts, which may be part of the mechanism that SVFs promoted the angiogenesis of diced cartilage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In rhinoplasty, many techniques are used to increase the permanence of the planned final shape of the nose. Cartilage grafts can be diced and applied directly to the nasal dorsum, or by wrapping with a material. We aim to show that mixing and using diced cartilage grafts with fat grafts can contribute to the viability of cartilage grafts by comparing our early postoperative and long-term results. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 228 cases were analyzed. Postoperative 1-month, 6-month, and 1.5-year photographs of the patients were compared and the places that descended on the nasal dorsum were measured. In addition, dorsal height was measured and compared. Preoperative and postoperative first-year rhinoplasty outcome evaluation scales were performed. Specimens from 6 patients were examined histopathologically. RESULTS After the first month, the mean regression in the dorsum was measured as 1.4 mm. The decrease in dorsal height between 1 month and 6 months was significantly greater than the decrease between 6 months and late periods. According to the rhinoplasty outcome evaluation (ROE) scale, the average preoperative score of the patients was 45, while the mean postoperative score was 81.5. The viability of chondrocyte cells was measured as 85-90% histopathologically. CONCLUSION This approach has been evaluated as an application that satisfies both the surgeon and the patient due to the advantages of fat grafts such as preventing the cartilage and osteotomy lines from being palpated in thin-skinned patients, holding the diced cartilage grafts together by acting as a glue, increasing the viability of cartilage grafts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal dorsum augmentation is a highly challenging rhinoplastic procedure. Problems encountered in this surgery, such as residual humps, irregularities, and asymmetry, account for a significant number of revision rhinoplasties. OBJECTIVES The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess complication rates and graft harvesting site morbidity and revision rates. METHODS We carried out a systematic review of the literature for pertinent materials in PubMed/Medline and Google Scholar up to and including August 2020. In addition, the reference list of included studies was searched manually. The criteria used were those described in the PRISMA Declaration for performing systematic reviews. RESULTS The initial search yielded 236 results. After 3 stages of screening, 16 papers (18 groups) were included in the systematic review and meta-analysis. Our results indicated that the total rates for the complications studied were as follows: graft resorption, 2.52%; insufficient augmentation, 3.93%; deviation (graft displacement), 1.77%; infection, 2.30%; irregularity, 1.36%; supra-tip depression, 1.13%; overcorrection, 3.06%; hematoma at recipient site, 1.36%; and visible bulging of the graft, 2.64%. The total rates for donor site hypertrophic scar and donor site hematoma were 2.64% and 3.58%, respectively. The rate of the revision surgery was 3.03%. CONCLUSIONS Current findings suggest the overall complications and revision rates with the use of diced cartilage wrapped in fascia for dorsum augmentation were relatively low and this technique is a reliable treatment choice for patients with primary/secondary dorsum deficiencies. Further studies with larger sample sizes and long-term follow-ups, clearer definitions of complications, and objective measurements are warranted to draw reliable practical conclusions.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the incidences of long-term complications and revision surgery associated with diced cartilage grafts in dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty. Methods: The PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials databases were searched for clinical studies on the use of diced cartilage for dorsal augmentation published. A meta-analysis was conducted to pool the estimated rates of infection, overcorrection, visible irregularity, absorption, and revision surgery. Result: A total of 14 studies involving 2380 patients were included in the systematic review. The combined rates were 11.5% for overall complications and 5.3% for revision surgery. The rates of the most frequently reported complications were 4.5% for infection, 5.3% for visible irregularity, 0.7% for overcorrection, and 0.5% for absorption. There was no significant difference in the rates of visible irregularity (p = 0.23) and revision surgery (p = 0.71) among the wrapped diced cartilage, glued diced cartilage, and free diced cartilage groups. Conclusion: This meta-analysis presents the first comprehensive and quantitative report of long-term complications associated with diced cartilage in dorsal augmentation rhinoplasty. Infection and visible irregularity were the most frequently reported complications. The rates of irregularity and revision surgery were not correlated with the diced cartilage packing methods.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Auricular cartilage is a common autologous graft material for rhinoplasty. Even though surgical techniques for the harvest of cartilage graft are well established, the management of the postoperative dressing fixation is still limited. Therefore, the authors propose a simple dressing fixation method in which gauze strips instead of gauze block or wet cotton, the suture of tie-over dressing fixed just through the cartilage rather than the full thickness of the auricle, a vaseline gauze interposed between the stitch knot and the skin and no additional pressure dressings postauricularly. No case of hematoma, infection and skin necrosis of the donor site was observed. This simple and reproducible technique provides perfect and homogeneous adhesion of the dressing all over the conchal cartilage while decreasing the risk of postoperative hematoma and discomfort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The authors initiated the use of a mastoid periosteum graft to augment or camouflage the dorsum and radix. This report describes the techniques and treatment outcomes of mastoid periosteum grafts in primary and revision rhinoplasty. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medical records of 62 patients who underwent rhinoplasty with mastoid periosteum were reviewed retrospectively. Of these, 21 patients who participated in follow-up for more than 6 months were analyzed through a comparison of pre- and postoperative photographs. Aesthetic results were scored on a scale of 0 to 4 (0 = poor, 1 = fair, 2 = moderate, 3 = good, 4 = excellent) with photographic evaluation by two independent surgeons. RESULTS A mastoid periosteum graft was used in 32 primary and 30 revision cases. The graft was used to augment the radix (28 cases), dorsum (15 cases), and both radix and dorsum (19 cases). Cartilage underlay was combined with mastoid periosteum grafts in 38 patients (61.3%, 17 in radix graft, 8 in dorsal graft, and 13 in both). The aesthetic outcome score assessed in 21 patients was 2.8 on average (3.2 in primary and 2.4 in revision cases). Cartilage combined cases showed better aesthetic outcome than free graft cases (3.1 vs. 2.5, respectively). Three cases of partial graft resorption were found, but there were no major complications. CONCLUSIONS Mastoid periosteum grafting is a safe and effective method to augment the radix or dorsum in primary and revision rhinoplasty. Long-term partial resorption cannot be completely excluded, which necessitates further study. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE IV This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

Abstract
This work presents the wrap technique developed by the authors aiming to avoid the occurrence of unaesthetic deep labiomental fold in genioplasty. The technique recommends the use of particulate bone graft that is wrapped on collagen or a Surgicel membrane which is placed over the osteotomized segment of the chin fixated with a prebent 4-hole titanium plate.
