The versatility of the lateral crural strut graft for correction of abnormalities of the lateral crura in rhinoplasty: a case series

Abstract

Rhinoplasty is considered by many to be one of the most complex surgeries among all plastic surgeries.1 The nose is considered to be one of the major structures responsible for adequate respiratory physiology and virtually all other systems are affected to a greater or lesser degree by the lack of predominantly nasal breathing. And due to this principle, nowadays, the functional complaint, besides esthetics, is being valued by surgeons.2
