[Frequent mistakes in corrective rhinoplasty].
Abstract
The choice of special techniques and a certain flexibility of the surgeon in performing his personal methods, and also the preoperative and intraoperative evaluation of specific characteristics of the nasal structures, are important factors in the prevention of mistakes and complications in rhinoplasty. Typical mistakes in septoplasty and the surgical treatment of the turbinates and the dermal and soft tissue structures are discussed. Septal subluxation, deviations of the nasal tip or postoperative scar formation often result in difficult postoperative corrective problems. Lack of care in the removal of bony or cartilaginous humps can lead to very bad nasal deformations. Precise control of all structures at the end of the operation and eventual final correction or "finishing" will often help to avoid secondary septo-rhinoplasties.
