Postoperative nasal stents enhance nasal tip projection in unilateral cleft lip surgeries, indicating their usefulness in surgical outcomes.
Postoperative nasal stents significantly improve nasal tip projection and alar base support following primary cleft rhinoplasty, with stented patients showing superior anteroposterior symmetry despite having more severe baseline cleft severity. They can be a useful adjunct to maintain surgical correction and counteract early soft-tissue relapse, especially in complete and high-severity clefts.
