It can provide superior tip projection and definition if there is a sufficient amount of cartilage and nasal septal stability. In our case, the caudal type septal extension graft was applied unilaterally using septal osteocartilaginous graft harvested in one piece during septoplasty. It was useful in patients who needed septal extension graft in spite of the insufficient amount of available septal cartilage. For those patients, it could be used to achieve the cephalic rotation of drooping tip and the strengthening of septal support effectively. The nasal septal osteocartilaginous graft may serve as an alternative material for conchal cartilage or costal cartilage for caudal septal extension graft if the stable nasal support is maintained and the harvested graft is applied appropriately.

The bilateral mucoperichondrial flap of the septum was raised (). The caudal strut was cut using scissors at the convex-most region (). The excess portions of the caudal strut were overlapped and sutured (C). Fig. 2. Techniques involving use of cartilage-bony septum for septal extension graft. The harvested cartilage-bony septum with several holes bored through it using eighteen-gauge needle or drill. Cartilage-bony septum fashioned for caudal septal extension graft (). The graft was fixed at one side to caudal part of the L-strut using quilting mattress sutures with 5-0 PDS (). PDS: polydioxanone. 증례 2 794
