Abstract

To study the use of septal extension graft for increasing nasal tip projection in cases of an under-projected nasal tip and to evaluate post-operative aesthetic and functional outcomes associated with it. 28 patients of underprojected tip underwent rhinoplasty with use of Direct caudal type of Septal extension graft with a minimum follow up of 12 months, operated between January 2018 to January 2020. ROE questionnaire and photographic evaluation were used for the assessment of post-operative functional and aesthetic outcomes. Significant improvement was seen in both aesthetic and functional outcomes with a mean ROE questionnaire score of 30.5 pre-operatively to 79.5 post-operatively. Pre-operative and post-operative photographic evaluation showed significant improvement in aesthetic outcome. None of the patients reported any postoperative complication. Septal extension graft can be used in patients with nasal tip deformity, Binder's syndrome, caudal septal disl ocation, drooping tip,/ retracted columella and short nose with good post-operative aesthetic and functional outcomes and hence is an important technique for grafting. Owing to its rigid fixation with nasal septum, anterior nasal spine and lower alar cartilage, long term results for the control of nasal tip projection and rotation are remarkable.
