Abstract

RODRIGUEZ-CAMPS, Salvador. Cleft rhinoplasty in adult patient: nasal base reconstruction. Case report. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2021, vol.47, n.4, pp.383-388.  Epub Mar 28, 2022. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922021000400008.

We present a 21-year-old patient, operated on 18 times in other Centres, and for the 19th time in our clinic, for rhinoplasty in cleft nose and lip sequelae that especially afected the entire nasal base and lip: absence of columella, very reduced nostrils and asymmetric, nasal wing deformity, upper lip in a tent shape with very irregular vermilion; the septum was preserved although respiratory function was very poor.

He required reconstruction of the entire nasal base and retouching of the upper lip and vermilion.

We present the surgical sequence and postoperative results at 2 weeks, 6 months, and 2 years.

Keywords : Rhinoplasty; Clef rhinoplasty; Secondary rhinoplasty; Complex rhinoplasty; Nasal base; Nasal reconstruction.
