Abstract

The osteotomy for rhinoplasty is a useful method to make the nasal bony pyramid get narrow, correct the deviated nose and prevent the open roof deformity after hump nose resection. The osteotomy for rhinoplasty is divided medial osteotomy, lateral osteotomy and transverse osteotomy. If the osteotomy is well done, it produces very effective and esthetic results. However, the osteotomy has problems that precise operation is often impossible for the difficulty of the access and that the possibility of the complication is very high. We report our clinical experience about the osteotomy for rhinoplasty.
