ABSTRACT
Background: The management of the nasal tip is of great importance in rhinoplasty.
The septocolumellar suture can help the surgeon achieve a greater projection and rotations
when managing the nasal tip.
Objective: To determine the changes in trans-surgical projection and rotation of the
nasal tip with the use of the septocolumellar suture.
Material and Method: A quasi-experimental before and after study. We included
patients undergoing primary rhinoplasty from April to August 2017. After managing the
nasal tip, pre- and post-septocolumellar suture photographs were taken and analyzed.
The nasal projection was evaluated using the Goode method, the nasolabial angle was
measured to evaluate nasal tip rotation.
Results: There were included 30 patients, 26 (86.7%) were females. The average age
was 23 ± 8 years old. In 18 patients (60%) a delivery approach was used, and cartilaginous
grafts were applied; in 12 (40%) a retrograde approach was chosen and an interdomal
suture was applied. Before the suture, the mean Goode’s index was 0.67 ± 0.5,
increasing to 0.75 ± 0.5 postsuture (p ‹ 0.001). The nasolabial angle increased from
97 ± 10
º presuture to 107 ± 9
º postsuture (p ‹ 0.001).
Conclusions: The application of the septocolumellar suture after the adequate
management of the nasal tip significantly increases both projection and rotation. In
addition, it provides more stability and support of nasal tip, mainta
