Abstract

Background

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of columellar strut and septal extension grafts for reconstruction of caudal nasal supportive structures on the long-term stability of nasal projection and rotation.

Methods

A comparison was done on the differences between the early- and long-term results of the ratios of nasal projection to nasal length and columella labial angle values in 36 patients who were operated on by the same surgeon using columellar or septal extension grafts.

Results

Both grafts had the effect of increasing nasal projection, and this effect was found to be stable over time. Some increased values of nasal projection obtained in the early postoperative period were lost over time. Although no significant difference was found between the groups, clinical and numerical observations showed that the values decreased less in the group that received septal extension grafts.

Conclusion

The tip position was more stable in cases with septal extension grafts than in those with columellar strut grafts.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

CME: 2 Punkte

Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Antoniadis Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

CME: 2 Punkte

Dr. med. Benjamin Meyknecht, PD Dr. med. Oliver Pieske Das Webinar S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“ beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
