title: [Ivory as a nose implant performed by Jacques Joseph. Late results after more than 40 years].
abstract: A report is represented on late results of saddle-nose corrections in three patients who, more than 40 years ago, underwent surgery performed by Jacques Joseph in Berlin using an ivory chip. One patient showed a very good permanent result, while the two others had implant loss, which, in one case, was due to trauma. The case reports offer an opportunity to recall a few biographical data on Jacques Joseph and on his use of ivory as an implant material.
