ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Direct wound closure (side-to-side closure) for closing nasal defects, is controversially discussed. Yet, data supporting one or the other are lacking. MATERIAL AND

METHOD:

An explorative, partly retrospective, partly prospective observational study including 81 patients was carried out for assessment of the operative results of after direct wound closure stretching rhinoplasty. The occurrence of complications, the esthetic result and influencing factors were examined. To assess the esthetic result the patient and observer scar assessment scale (POSAS) scores of patients and observers were determined. In both scores seven values were determined (1 point normal skin, 10 points worst imaginable scar). The individual values were added to give a total value (minimum 7-maximum 70).

RESULTS:

After direct wound closure stretching rhinoplasty, 12 out of 81 patients (15 %) developed complications, in 5 cases suture dehiscence, in 5 cases cyst formation, in 4 cases a wound infection and 2 patients developed cyst formation and a wound infection. All suture dehiscences occurred on the lower third of the nose. Most of the patients were satisfied and assessed the scar with an average total value of 13.4 ± 7.07 (minimum 7, maximum 70, n = 42). In the individual assessments pain (1.14 ± 0.57; minimum 1, maximum 10) was rated best and scar color (2.50 ± 1.76; minimum 1, maximum 10) was rated worst. The total assessment in the observer-POSAS was also good with 12.9 ± 4.8 (minimum 7, maximum 70; n = 32). Elasticity was rated best (1.47 ± 0.88; minimum 1, maximum 7) and scar pigmentation (2.34 ± 1.54; minimum 1, maximum 7) worst. No correlations with a complication were found.

CONCLUSION:

Direct wound closure stretching rhinoplasty is a safe method, especially for defect coverage in the upper two thirds of the soft tissue covering the nose, which in most cases achieved a good cosmetic result.
