[The advantage of the autologous parietal bone graft in posttraumatic rhinoplasty].

Popularized by Tessier in 1982, the calvarial bone graft has been used extensively in reconstructive techniques in the cranio-facial region. The authors present here their experience of nasal bone grafting using split skull grafts for post-traumatic reconstructions. Ten patients, with a total of 11 bone grafts harvested, were operated. Results are reported. The level of patient satisfaction has been high. We have had only 2 minor complications, 1 case of alopecia, corrected by a resection in local anesthesia, this inconvenient has never reported before in the literature, and another case of secondary displacement of the nasal bone graft, who required a second operation with a good result. Discussion is reported. Several methods have been used for nasal reconstruction as silicone implants and other bone donor site; but they have disadvantages like painful to the donor site, long hospitalizations, infections and extrusions, etc. The use of cranial graft has some advantages: first of all, it is less likely to resorb, because of its membranous origin, the donor site is in close proximity to the area to be grafted, there is almost no morbidity to the donor site. Recently two case reports describing major complications were published in the literature. A case of a superior sagittal sinus laceration reported by Cannella and Hopkins and a case of an intracerebral hematoma, reported by Leroy-Young. For these reasons it's important to follow strictly the surgical procedure described. We recommended this technique only to those surgeons who are experienced in cranio-facial surgery.

Resolution of pathological identification between mother and son following rhinoplasty.

The case here described shows that severe psychological disturbance can be caused by identification between mother and son, resulting in preoccupation with a part of the body, which in the opinion of those outside the relationship, shows no gross abnormality. Similar delusional beliefs to those held by the mother were induced in the son, when he reached the age at which these beliefs occurred in the mother, in whom they were incompletely resolved. Plastic surgery, in the absence of gross deformity, brought relief of the distress caused by this type of psychopathology. Relief occurred in the conflicts of both mother and son, even though operation was on the latter, only.

[ Rhinoplasty in children].

The authors present modern methods of surgeon reconstructions nose's deformation. They analyse transplant material kinds. On the ground of 726 children operated in Department of Pediatric Otolaryngology Warsaw University School of Medicine authors indicate that this operations has not unfavourable influence for anatomical nose's structures and his normal growth. Good present and further functional and cosmetic results of this study points, that this method can be performed in all well-founded cases independently of patient's age.
