Because of the continuing increase in the popularity of cosmetic nasal surgery, the revision of previous augmented septorhinoplasties has become more common. With the use of autogenous grafts and the popularization of several synthetic implant materials, a correct preoperative evaluation of the augmented nasal dorsum has become more difficult. Several such patients were examined using conventional soft tissue roentgenograms and xerograms. The latter method produced an improved image of the nasal skeleton when compared with the conventional soft tissue examination. The support for this conclusion is provided by clinical photographs, x-rays films, and xerograms of illustrative cases. |
