Dorsal Augmentation-Diced Cartilage Techniques: The Diced Cartilage Glue Graft
Tasman AJ.
In the archive as a landmark paper: the core sweep runs 2011–2026, and this one is here because the history of rhinoplasty rests on it · cited on diced cartilage grafts.
From the abstract
“The quest for the ideal method for augmenting the nasal dorsum continues to be a matter of debate, with both most surgeons and patients preferring autologous tissue. This article reviews the current use of diced cartilage for nasal augmentation, emphasizing the diced cartilage in fibrin glue (DCG) graft. It offers the…”
