title: Current approaches to septal saddle nose reconstruction using autografts.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe the contemporary techniques used for septal saddle nose and, based on these, present our approaches for correction of a spectrum of deformity severities.
  
  
  RESULTS
  A review of different techniques currently in practice. These reflect greater emphasis on nasal structural framework repair rather than disguise and the use of autografts rather than allografts.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  We present our classification of septal saddle deformity, demonstrating that this condition requires a flexible surgical approach with different techniques required depending on the extent of the defect.
