Rib Grafting in Secondary Rhinoplasty
- From A to Z
Contemporary Primary and Secondary Rhinoseptoplasty is becoming fascinatingly complex. The predictability of Structural techniques is being challenged by the only apparently easy Preservation concepts. Techniques are multiple and variations are many. Flexibility in intraoperative choices, attention to detail and mastery of multiple tips and tricks increasingly matter. The scenario is not simple, but the game is worth the challenge since results are better and better meeting the expectations of patients who don’t want a copycat result but rather an individualized nose.
Primary Hybrid Rhinoplasty combines Preservation and Structural concepts drawing the best of both. Piezo and Power Tools can then well be combined together for different and complementary indications, regarding both the manipulation of nasal bones as well as a precise septoplasty.
Rib Grafting in Secondary Rhinoplasty, when performed with a clear algorithm, attention to detail and mastery of numerous tips and tricks, allows a true difference in results. Mastery of finesse autologous rib grafting is indispensable for those who want to actively practice revision rhinoplasty.
This specific, intensive, course, in a classroom like one-to-one format, will allow attendees to spend 3 days in HD connection with the operating room, as well as be exposed to lectures and videos on the many issues and current refinements I employ in open rhinoplasty. I will share my favorite techniques, in all their details and nuances on 6 cases of variable complexity, 3 primary and 3 secondary cases.
The former will show different deformities in males and females and include structural, preservation and hybrid techniques while the latter will involve finesse rib reconstruction with its tips and tricks. It is my belief that this course will allow, due to its format and the limited number of attendees, a special and unique learning experience.
