title: External rhinoplasty technique.
abstract: External rhinoplasty is a valuable tool in the surgical armamentarium of all nasal surgeons. It does not change the dynamics of the operation but offers a new method of exposure. The purpose of this paper is to present our experience with the external rhinoplasty technique in 601 patients, and review the results and complications of this approach to nasal surgery. Two patient reports are presented to demonstrate use of the technique in nasal surgery.
