Abstract
The management of the over resected dorsum in rhinoplasty remains a challenge. The use of costal cartilage is an established technique for correction of saddle nose deformities and reconstruction, however, warping of this graft has long been considered a problem. Our case illustrates that diced cartilage wrapped in fascia can undergo significant fibrosis. This finding of fibrosis of diced cartilage has not previously been reported.
