Video-Assisted Septo-rhinoplasty, the Future of Endonasal Rhinoplasty—A Technical Note
Aesthetic plastic surgery(2024)
摘要
Introduction Surgeons have sought to improve outcomes in rhinoplasty through innovative techniques. Although many publications illustrate the advantages of endoscopic septoplasty over conventional methods, few have evaluated the benefits of endoscopy for rhinoplasty. In this article, the authors meticulously describe their own technique that offers a sustainable alternative to open approach rhinoplasty, with high reproducibility and enhanced knowledge for young surgeons. Methods The technique involves using video-assisted endoscopy for enhanced visibility and access. Various steps are performed, including hemitransfixion incision, septoplasty if necessary, dorsal reduction, and the development of endoscopic spreader flaps. Nasal tip surgery follows standard endonasal rhinoplasty techniques. Results This technique has been successfully performed for years in primary and secondary rhinoplasties, resulting in improved aesthetic and functional outcomes without external scars. The endoscopic view enhances understanding for surgeons and residents, while preserving internal valve function and minimizing swelling. Patients express high satisfaction with the procedure. Conclusions Video-assisted endoscopic septo-rhinoplasty offers a valuable alternative, providing natural outcomes with improved visualization and reduced complications. It is applicable to various indications and demonstrates its effectiveness compared to traditional approaches. The advanced endoscopic guided septo-rhinoplasty technique combines the benefits of open approach rhinoplasty while avoiding its drawbacks. Level of Evidence IV This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each submission to which Evidence-Based Medicine rankings are applicable. This excludes Review Articles, Book Reviews, and manuscripts that concern Basic Science, Animal Studies, Cadaver Studies, and Experimental Studies.
