The Effect of Arch Cartilage Graft and Tajima Reverse U Approach in the Secondary Reconstruction of Unilateral Cleft Lip Nasal Deformity
Copyright © 2022 by Mutaz B. Habal, MD..
ABSTRACT: Secondary cleft lip nasal deformity is complicated with wide spectrum of defect and varied reconstructive procedures. There has been no unanimous solution for a given problem. In case of a localized alar depression in unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity, the conchal cartilage applied as arch graft was proposed. Patients were recruited from database of craniofacial center who received Tajima method and arch cartilage graft. Inclusion criteria were patients with unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity after skeletal maturity. Through a reverse U incision, the lower lateral cartilage was dissected and released from the skin and the contralateral cartilage. The harvested conchal cartilage graft was trimmed to 25 to 30 by 8mm in size, and inserted as arch shape overlying the cleft side lower lateral cartilage. Transdomal fixation sutures were made. Outcome assessment was performed, and the nostril and alar dimensions were measured. Thirty-nine patients were eligible for evaluation of the surgical outcome. Majority of patients underwent simultaneous lip revision (97%). No surgery-related complications were noted in this series. Satisfaction to the nasal reconstruction was reported in 85% of patients. Further minor nasal revisions were performed in 6 patients (15%). Quantitative measurement showed statistically significant improvement in nostril height, alar height and alar width after the surgery. It is concluded that the Tajima reverse U approach plus arch cartilage graft is an effective method for secondary reconstruction of the unilateral cleft lip nasal deformity in selected patients presenting with cleft side alar depression.5.
