[The evaluation of complications following augmentation rhinoplasty with silicon gel].
Since 1985, 15 patients who suffered from complications after augmentation rhinoplasty by injection of silicone gel have been reoperated on in our department. These complications included: (1) unsatisfactory aesthetic result in nine cases; (2) ulceration in three cases; (3) ophthalmic complications, including blindness of one-eye (2 cases) and two-eyes with severe vision disorders (1 case). The reasons for unsatisfactory aesthetic result and other complications were analysed and evaluated.
