Columelloplasty: a new suture technique to correct caudal septal cartilage dislocation.

Deviation of the nasal septum is a common finding in patients with nasal obstruction and, when such deviation is severe, a septoplasty or submucous resection with or without turbinate reduction is commonly recommended for the relief of the patient's symptoms. In cases where there is anterior subluxation of the septum, the caudal margin frequently presents on one or either side of the midline at the external nares. We report a simple suture technique which, when subluxation is not severe, will correct this caudal displacement. The technique can either be used as an adjunct to conventional septoplasty or it can be undertaken as an isolated procedure in patients having routine rhinoplasty.
