Abstract
Rhinoplasty is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgical procedures. It has been reported that the overall incidence of complications is low, and hematoma is the most common complication. Recently, the authors experienced a young patient who developed nasal dorsal bleeding and hematoma formation 2 weeks after undergoing rhinoplasty. He had a history of hypertension and was on medication. Due to severe nasal dorsal swelling caused by bleeding and hematoma, the authors ultimately performed an open approach to control the bleeding and evacuate the hematoma. Herein, the authors report the case of a patient with delayed dorsal bleeding 2 weeks after rhinoplasty. The authors learned a lesson that although the patient was young and healthy, in patients with a history of hypertension, the possibility of delayed operative site bleeding should be considered.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Craniofacial Surgery serves as a forum of communication for all those involved in craniofacial surgery, maxillofacial surgery and pediatric plastic surgery. Coverage ranges from practical aspects of craniofacial surgery to the basic science that underlies surgical practice. The journal publishes original articles, scientific reviews, editorials and invited commentary, abstracts and selected articles from international journals, and occasional international bibliographies in craniofacial surgery.
