PROCEDURE

Lateral crural steal with columellar strut graft in Primary Open Rhinoplasty

Patients undergo primary open rhinoplasty under general anesthesia. After local infiltration, an open approach is performed using an inverted-V transcolumellar incision with bilateral marginal incisions. The skin-soft tissue envelope is elevated in the supra-perichondrial plane. Dorsal deformities are corrected and septoplasty is performed with cartilage harvest. Vestibular skin is undermined and cephalic trimming of the lateral crura is carried out. Lateral crural steal is performed by advancing the medial end of the lateral crus 3-5 mm medially using transdomal sutures after defining the new dome position. A fixed columellar strut graft is inserted between the medial crura and secured to provide central tip support. Interdomal sutures are placed. No additional projection-enhancing grafts are used. Incisions are closed and internal and external nasal splints are applied.
