Using the Autospreaders as a Cutting Guide for Component Hump Reduction in Rhinoplasty
Dorsal preservation techniques as a means of addressing the dorsal hump have been popularized recently to avoid midvault disruption or dorsal resection. The pitfall of these techniques is the higher rate of dorsal hump recurrence of up to 15%. We present the use of the upper lateral cartilages (ULCs...

| description | Dorsal preservation techniques as a means of addressing the dorsal hump have been popularized recently to avoid midvault disruption or dorsal resection. The pitfall of these techniques is the higher rate of dorsal hump recurrence of up to 15%. We present the use of the upper lateral cartilages (ULCs) as a turn-in flap and as a cutting guide during classic dorsal hump takedown. The cutting guide provides the perfect dorsal angulation and dictates the amount of resection needed. This translates to aesthetically pleasing dorsal lines, avoidance of dorsal irregularities, and decreased risk of hump recurrence. |
