Learning Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, the participant should be able to:
-
Understand the complications of rhytidectomy and methods to reduce their incidence
-
Anticipate common complications of rhinoplasty and be able to integrate into clinical practice methods to reduce these complications
-
Describe methods to treat early and late complications of repair of bony and soft tissue facial trauma
-
Integrate into clinical practice measures to reduce the incidence of complications of auricular reconstruction
-
Employ methods to prevent complications of cleft palate and cleft lip repair
-
Understand and describe measures to prevent and treat adverse sequellae of facial laser treatments
-
Use neuromodulators and soft tissue fillers in a way that reduces the risk of complications
-
Definitive, or secondary cleft rhinoplasty should be performed at which of the following ages in females and males respectively
-
11 and 13 years
-
13 and 15 years
-
15 and 17 years
-
17 and 19 years
-
-
The unilateral secondary cleft nasal deformity contains all of the following characteristics EXCEPT
-
Retrodisplacement and underprojection of dome on the cleft side
-
Foreshortened columella on the cleft side
-
Caudal septal deflection to the cleft side
-
Malpositioned alar base on the cleft side
-
-
Included among the causes of the failed rhinoplasty outcome are the following:
-
The grandiose patient with unreasonable expectations
-
Hostile wound-healing responses that subvert a technically sound operation
-
Improper cosmetic analysis of the nose
-
a, b, and c
-
-
Which of the following factors predispose to the inverted-V deformity?
-
Scar contracture of the middle vault cartilages
-
Over-resection of the nasal dorsum
-
Soft pliable nasal cartilage
-
Short nasal bones
-
All of the above
-
-
What is the underlying cause of post-operative alar retraction?
-
Overly tight dome sutures
-
Over-excision of the cephalic (lateral crural) margin
-
Soft pliable alar cartilage
-
Short nasal bones
-
Horizontal contracture of the vestibular skin
-
-
A patient has internal valve obstruction following aggressive dorsal hump reduction. What surgical technique, in addition to spreader grafts, can help alleviate the Learning Objectives static obstruction in this region?
-
Alar batten graft
-
Flaring suture
-
Flip-flop lateral crura
-
Drilling of the piriform aperture
-
-
A patient with Wegener's Granulomatosis is experiencing severe nasal obstruction due to mucosal inflammation. On exam there is significant destruction of the mucosa corresponding to the supra-alar crease. What is the next course of action?
-
Composite graft from the conchal bowl
-
“Bucket-handle” mucosal flap
-
Buccal mucosa pedicled flap
-
Medical control of inflammation
-
-
The following technique(s) can be used to deproject, or give the illusion of deprojecting, the nasal tip:
-
Raising the radix
-
Lowering the radix
-
Medial crural overlay
-
Lateral crural steal
-
A & C
-
-
Which of the following do not contribute to the appearance of a short nose deformity?
-

-
Long upper lip
-
High radix
-
Over-rotated nasal tip
-
-
Which of the following grafting techniques are key to positioning the ala when correcting the short nose deformity?

Shield tip graft combined with lateral crural grafts
-
Lateral crural strut grafts repositioned caudally
-
Composite skin/cartilage graft from ear
-
Alar batten grafts placed in the side wall of the nose
-
