Rhinoplasty in the immediate assumption of responsibility of nasal burns. Technical note and report of two cases

We report the use of a traditional technique of rhinoplasty in the immediate assumption of responsibility of deep burn of the nasal edge which cannot be grafted. The limit of the realization of this gesture lies in the fact that it must exist nasal morphological characteristics at the patient. The two cases presented had an hypertrophic nose with osseous and/or cartilaginous bump. The reduction height of the osseo-cartilaginous frame allows closing the defect without cutaneous tension. One carries out a true excision-joining of the burn of the nasal dorsum. We note at one year of retreat, the discretion of the scar located on the centre line of the nose, the absence of after-effects as well as the cosmetic satisfaction of the patients with respect to the modifications morphological their noses.
