Abstract

The dynamic retrograde intercrural columellar strut graft placement is a novel technique for a columellar strut insertion via a hemi-transfixion incision in patients undergoing endonasal functional or cosmetic surgery. It has a maximally concealed incision and does not disrupt major or minor tip support mechanisms. In our article, we give a detailed description of this unique surgical technique. Laryngoscope, 134:1246-1248, 2024.

Keywords: columellar strut; dynamic retrograde intercrural columellar strut; endonasal rhinoplasty; functional rhinoplasty.
