The procedure the record names

Pages on this site that explain the operation named above, written from the primary literature. They describe the procedure, not this person's surgery, which no surgeon of record has published.

  • The deviated nose

    A deviated nose is one whose axis leaves the midline of the face, at the bones, at the middle third, at the tip, or at all three.

  • Saddle nose deformity

    A saddle nose is a bridge that has lost height in the middle, so the profile dips between the radix and the tip the way a saddle dips between its pommel and cantle.
