Abstract Background  Correction of a crooked or deviated nose is a complex cosmetic and functional problem as well as a big challenge for the rhinoplasty surgeon. Although corrections using a wide range of surgical techniques to straighten the nose and maximize nasal function have been proposed, recurrence is very common because of cartilage memory and scar contracture. Therefore, to prevent recurrence and maintain the correction of the septum, a permanent support that is stable and powerful with the ability to maintain its given shape after placement on one or both sides of the septum is needed. Methods  The author used a nasal bone graft. In this study, the concept and technique for correction of the crooked nose and the author’s experience using it are presented. Results  This graft material was used for 12 patients with crooked noses (8 with C-type and 4 with S-type noses). During a mean follow-up period of 20 months (range, 12–36 months), there were no complications, recurrences, or extrusions. Functional evaluations were performed using a visual analog scale before surgery and 6 months after surgery. Patients were asked to score their nasal breathing on a scale ranging from 0 to 100. The mean preoperative worth was 17.67% ± 1.22% (range, 15–25%), and the postoperative worth was 89.88% ± 1.24% (range, 85–95%). Conclusion  Use of nasal bone grafts as the spreader graft is a safe, effective, reliable, and permanent method for correction of the crooked nose. The author advises using this technique with nasal bone grafts for functional recovery and increased strength against further trauma or forces of scar contracture. This technique may prevent recurrence attributable to cartilage memory. Content Type Journal ArticleCategory Original ArticleDOI 10.1007/s00266-007-9108-4Authors I. M.
