| Abstract | ||
| Background: The deviated nose is one that varies from the straight vertical orientation of the face. Correction of this deformity presents a challenge because it represents both a functional problem (airway obstruction) and an aesthetic problem must be addressed. Patient and Methods: From December 2007 to December 2017, 47 patients with crooked nose were operated; 26 males and 21 females, aged from 18 years to 35 years, with the mean age were 26.5 years. Results: Different techniques were applied depending on deformity type and severity including; solitary osteotomy and septorhinoplasty. Four patients needed iliac bone grafts for deformity correction. Conclusion: Absolute correction of the crooked nose is a difficult task because of the complexity of the structural defect, the highly visible, well-defined subunits of the nasal dorsum, the need for highly skilled surgeon and the tendency for recurrence. | ||
