A radio-paleontological evaluation and comparison of Anatolian rhinoplasty patients and the literature. Who are we “engaged” to operate?

Year 2020, Volume: 59 Issue: 2, 97 - 100, 30.06.2020

Abstract

Aim: Nasal bone anatomy is a frequent target of rhinoplasty procedures. This study aims to examine the nasal bony anatomy of rhinoplasty-seeking patients, and compare it with the recent literature.
Materials and Methods: 138 patients seeking rhinoplasty were examined with CT scans. Nasal bone length, width, osteotomy line bone thicknesses on three separate levels, aperture width and lengths were measured. 87 female and 51 male patients, aged between 16 to 58 years, were included in this study.
Results: Nasal bone lengths were measured as 2.47±0.42 cm, widths were measured as 1.06±0.19 cm on right and 1.06±0.21 cm on left, aperture widths were measured as 2.31±0.2 cm and heights as 3.16±0.43 cm, osteotomy thicknesses were measured as 1.61±0.33 mm, 1.79±0.37 mm, 2.05±0.45 mm on inferior, medial and superior parts, respectively.
Conclusion: Measurements of nasal skeletal properties showed unsimilar results with studies from adjacent areas. Therefore, it may be wise to say that surgeons should not approach every patient as a standard patient with similar anatomical structures.

Abstract

Amaç: Nazal kemik anatomisi, rinoplasti ameliyatlarının temel hedeflerinden biridir. Bu çalışma, rinoplasti olmak isteyen hastaların nazal kemik anatomisinin incelenmesini ve literatürle karşılaştırılmasını amaçlamaktadır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: 138 rinoplasti isteği ile başvuran hastanın Bilgisayarlı Tomografi (BT) taramaları incelenmiştir. Kemik uzunluğu, genişliği, üç ayrı seviyede osteotomi kalınlıkları, apertura piriformis genişlik ve yükseklikleri ölçülmüştür. Yaşları 16 ile 58 arasında değişen 87 bayan ve 51 erkek hasta çalışma popülasyonuna dâhil edilmiştir.
Bulgular: Nazal kemik uzunlukları 2,47±0,42 cm, genişlikleri sağda 1,06±0,19 cm, solda 1,06±0,21 cm; apertura piriformis genişlikleri 2,31±0,2 cm, yükseklikleri 3,16±0,43 cm; osteotomi kalınlıkları, alt orta ve üst seviyelerde sırasıyla 1,61±0,33 mm, 1,79±0,37 mm ve 2,05±0,45 mm olarak ölçülmüştür.
Sonuç: Bu ölçümler, komşu coğrafi bölgelerde yapılan çalışmalardan farklılık göstermektedir. Bu nedenle cerrahların her hastaya aynı anatomik özelliklere yönelik standart bir yaklaşım göstermemelidir.
