Introduction The shape of the nose is a signature indicating the ethnicity, age, and sex of the person. Our aim is to map the range of various anthropometric parameters of nose in South Indians. Materials and Methods This study includes measurement and statistical analysis of different parameters of nose among 61 South Indian medical students (34 females;27 males) using digital Vernier calipers. Results The means of various parameters were- 1) Nasal Breadth -2.9cm (males) and 2.5 cm (females). 2) Nasal height-5 cm (males) and 4.9cm (females). 3) The nasofacial angle-37.9 degree (males) and 36.7 degree (females). 4) The nasolabial angle 115.2 degree (males) and 116.5 degree (females). 5) The nasofrontal angle 127.1 degree (males) and 134.7 degree (females). 6) The most common type of nose is leptorrhine in both males and females. Conclusion All the measurements can be used for evaluation of nasal deformity, treatment planning and post-surgical evaluation of the correction achieved during rhinoplasty. |
