Combining Open Structural and Dorsal Preservation Rhinoplasty. Clinics in plastic surgery Patel, P. N., Most, S. P. 2022; 49 (1): 97-109

Abstract

There has been a resurgence in dorsal preservation rhinoplasty (DPR) caused by theoretic aesthetic and functional advantages compared with conventional hump takedown rhinoplasty. Classically, the push-down and let-down maneuvers have been described for management of the bony nasal vault. There have been a variety of modifications in the septal resection that is a requisite for dorsal lowering in DPR. Partial dorsal preservation techniques, including cartilage-only preservation, have also been described. Although several studies have reported aesthetic and functional success with a variety of techniques, few have used objective or patient-centered subjective measures.
