Ear cartilage grafts to the nose.

We present our experience in the treatment of secondary nasal deformities caused by excessive resection of the nasal dorsum. We have used ear cartilage autografts, with good results and (on the whole) little or no resorption (some have been followed for 10 years). We consider it essential to correctly shape the transplant and to hold it firmly in the proper position for a period of not less than one week.

Arm dermolipectomy with a quadrangular flap and "T" closure.

We present a technique for the correction of obesity and/or ptosis of the arms. It consists of raising a lower quadrangular advancement flap, sliding the upper wound margin downward, cutting the excess off the quadrangular flap, and a T-shaped closure. A compressive elastic bandage is worn continuously for 3 months to help keep the closure scar flat and prevent its hypertrophy.
