title: [Surgical anatomy of the nose].
abstract: A good anatomical knowledge is a pre-requisite to all surgeries. In rhinoplasty, where many steps are performed without visual control and are only guided by palpation, anatomy must be mastered. Based on classical static anatomy and dynamic surgical modifications of the nose, this study analyses anatomical and surgical correlation and reports their technical implications. Correction of the shape of the nose is to be able to conceptualize the underlying skeleton and to program adapted surgical procedure for each case.
