title: [Correction of nose deviations using latero-septal grafts from irradiated bovine cartilage].
abstract: Deviated noses corrective surgery is not without problems. Authors give the result obtained by the use of processed irradiated bovine cartilage (Chondroplast) as spreader graft in eighteen rhinoplasty, associated with a classical septorhinoplasty technique. The maximum background is five years. The future of the grafts can be appreciated on direct signs obtained by palpation, or indirect ones such as stability of the functional or aesthetic result, radiological visualisation of the bovine cartilage graft. Their volumetric stability is satisfactory and their guide role is excellent. This undisputed aid in the aesthetic and functional correction of deviated noses, associated with availability, easy use and a good tolerance, made the authors use spreader grafts in processed irradiated bovine cartilage as a choice technique in this indication, associated with bone and septal surgery, when local cartilage autografts are not available in sufficient quantities.
