Our experience with silicone in rhinomentoplasty.

Based on a review of the literature and our own experience, we propose criteria for the site of implantation that, in our eyes, is suitable for a silicon implant or a cartilage transplant. Special interest is focused on rhinoplasty and chin augmentation, as both determine the facial profile of the patient. During the last 17 years we have treated 443 patients with augmentation rhinoplasty, of whom 360 received autologous ear cartilage grafts and 83 received autologous rib cartilage grafts. At the same time we saw 30 patients requiring removal of artificial implant materials that were used by other surgeons for rhinoplasty augmentation purposes. Since 1986 we have performed 60 chin augmentations with anatomically shaped silicone implants (McGhan), of which 40 patients had a combined rhinomentoplasty done.

Stenosis of the nasal vestibule and its treatment.

From our own experience and a review of the literature, we present a few techniques which, in our eyes, give the surgeon the possibility to treat most encountered cases of stenosis of the nasal vestibule. During 1991 to 1998 the author in Stuttgart (W.G.) performed simple z-plasty combined with local flaps in 6 patients and composite grafts only in 12 cases, to correct nasal vestibule stenosis. The author in Lausanne (R.M.), who first described the paranasal myocutaneous flap to correct not only nasal vestibule stenosis but also alar base malposition has treated over 50 patients with this technique and with composite grafts during the last 20 years.
