title: Difficult revision case: Repeated trauma.
abstract: This article reviews the case of a 31-year-old female who had originally sustained a softball injury to her face and nose. Four years after the injury, she underwent her first rhinoplasty, which included spreader grafts. Unfortunately, a few months later, she sustained further nasal trauma, motivating her to seek a revision septo-rhinoplasty.
