[Correcture of congenital defects of the wing and the tip of the nose (author's transl)].
Congenital hypoplasia of the nasal wing can appear as a defect (congenital notch) or as a flattening and deficiency of the cartilagineous support. The combination with other deformities is seen frequently, 2 own cases: 1. Congenital notch of the left ala nasi. Operation: forming a window in the wing by incision, implantation of a composite graft from the ear, undisturbed and complete healing. 2. Hypoplasia of both cartilages of the ala nasi, flatness and dropping of the nasal tip, combined with deformities in both middle ears. Operation: Lifting the nasal tip, median suture between the cartilages of the wing in the tip, implantation of some septal cartilage in the latter to fill up the flatness. Both cases showed also after one year a good result.
