Özet
Background: Saddle nose deformity (SND) is a collapse of the cartilage and bone structures forming the dorsal projection of the nose. After the use of autologous cartilage in the treatment of SND, resorption and warping continue to be a problem. Methods: This study presents results from 11 patients with SND types III and IV from 2005 to 2017 treated with autologous cartilage fixed with microplates and microscrews. The patients were monitored for at least 1 year. Resorption and warping were measured using postoperative photographs of the patients in the 3rd and 12th months after treatment. Results: No signs of resorption or warping were noted in the patients. Conclusions: Our findings indicate autologous cartilage use with microplates and microscrews is a viable, long-term treatment option for patients with SND types III and IV.
