Fixing Broken and Crooked Noses
Advertisement
Although cosmetic nose surgery (rhinoplasty) is usually performed to improve harmony and appearance, the nose is frequently broken in car accidents, falls and football injuries. In some situations this causes a significant deviation of the nose. Crookedness of the nose caused by trauma frequently causes major breathing problems and nose blockage. At the same time as correcting the external deviation and improving the nose shape in post-traumatic situations, it is usual to improve the airways of the nose by altering the position or size of the internal nasal structures.

The septum (the midline cartilage of the nose) is frequently displaced in nasal trauma and often requires straightening as much as the external nasal bones. In post-traumatic nose surgery, the shape of the nose is usually modified by reducing or building up the cartilage or bony elements of the nose as necessary. The nasal bones are broken and reset into a more appropriate position and frequently cartilage strips are used to spread the airway to allow better breathing. Multiple strips of cartilage usually come from the septum but from time to time are taken from ear or rib cartilage to improve the underlying structure and function of the nose.

Of all the operations related to nose surgery, it is generally acknowledged by nose surgery experts that straightening the deviated nose is the most challenging aspect of nose surgery.
Even noses that have been broken and deviated for a long time can usually be straightened by about 90%. It is very difficult to straighten these longstanding deviated noses 100% because the cartilage elements of the nose retain a memory of the longstanding shape and tend to want to resume that shape to some degree. In the situation of the recently broken nose, if it is set straight within two weeks, it is usually possible to completely straighten.3.jpg) |
