Safety of Irradiated Homologous Costal Cartilage Graft in Cleft Rhinoplasty
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2020Background: Autologous cartilage grafts have a low risk of infection and extrusion in cleft rhinoplasty. However, harvesting autologous cartilage involves donor-site morbidity and increased time under anesthesia.

Costal Cartilage Grafting for Dorsal Augmentation
2013The aesthetic and functional implications of an appropriate dorsal contour are immense and contribute significantly to the overall rhinoplasty results. The authors discuss anatomy of the upper, middle, and lower thirds of the nose, goals for augmentation, materials used for dorsal augmentation, evaluation of the patient, harvesting the grafts ...

Technical Maneuvers to Decrease Warping of Peripheral Costal Cartilage Grafts
Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, 2016Background: Cartilage warping has plagued reconstructive and cosmetic rhinoplasty since the introduction of extraanatomical cartilage use. The authors’ group theorized that, rather than focusing on the prevention of the innate tendency of rib graft warping, it may be possible to redirect the stressors toward themselves and use ...

Costal cartilage graft with perichondrium, a possible anti-adhesive material
Journal of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery, 2016Adhesion occurs as a part of the wound healing process, but it sometimes compromises patients' daily activities. The authors were looking for materials and methods that could prevent adhesion, and noticed that the costal cartilage has possibility. The anti-adhesive property of the costal cartilage was examined histologically.Thirty-five patients with ...

Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2021
Graft use is inevitable in some primary and secondary rhinoplasty cases with cartilage or bone deficiency. Although rib graft is one of the best graft sources, it has several disadvantages. The purpose of this study is to minimize the risks of using rib grafts.Between 2018 and 2020, a total of 21 patients aged between 25 and 55 have undergone revision ...

Comprehensive Application of Autologous Costal Cartilage Grafts in Rhino- and Mentoplasty
Journal of Craniofacial Surgery, 2019Background: Underdevelopment of nose and chin in East Asians is quite common. Rhinoplasty and mentoplasty are effective procedures to solve the above-depicted defects and can achieve remarkable cosmetic effects. An autologous costal cartilage graft has become an ideal material for rhinoplasty, especially for revision surgery ...

Arthroplasty of the Proximal Interphalangeal Joint Using Costal Cartilage Grafts
Journal of Hand Surgery, 1992Seven intra-articular fractures in five patients with partial bone loss at the PIP joint were reconstructed using a graft of costal cartilage. In all cases there were total or partial cartilagenous defects of the proximal phalangeal side of the joint. Early treatment of two joints, using only costal cartilage grafts, resulted in bony ankylosis due to ...

Costal and Auricular Cartilage Grafts for Nasal Reconstruction: An Anatomic Analysis
Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2017Objectives: The aim of this study was to measure the length, width, and surface area of costal and auricular cartilage harvested for grafting in rhinoplasty and nasal reconstruction. We also compared the sizes of ear cartilage grafts harvested from the anterior and posterior approaches.

Irradiated Homologous Costal Cartilage: Versatile Grafting Material for Rhinoplasty
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 2003For most surgeons, nasal septal cartilage is the first choice in septoplasty. However, when this source is depleted, an alloplastic implant material might be preferable over other autogenous donor sites in order to avoid additional scars, morbidity, and lengthened operating time.
