Abstract
The temporalis fascia graft has been widely used in the correction of nasal deformities. The fascia can be used alone or combined for augmentation rhinoplasty. The fascia graft provides adequate coverage, contour, and bulk on the profile of the nose, as well as an inconspicuous donor site. A depressed radix area can be successfully corrected by the fascia graft. We present two cases of nasal radix augmentation by using temporalis fascia graft. Two male patients presented with the skeletal class III malocclusion and the depressed radix. A planned orthognathic surgery and the temporalis fascia graft to the radix were performed. The malocclusion and the profile of the patients were markedly improved after the operation. Not only the radix but also the nose was improved in its size and length. There was no noticeable resorption or displacement of the radix area at follow-up. The temporalis fascia graft could be an appropriate surgical technique in radix augmentation and nose lengthening.
