Abstract
The authors reported 3 cases of marked saddle nose, postfatal adhesion of the soft palate to the posterior pharyngeal wall and congenital deformity of the lip treated by plastic surgery with satisfactory results.
In the first case, rhinoplasty was tried using rib cartilage and ivory in view of remarkable ugliness.
In the second case, the operation was carried on through the oral cavity unaccompanied by postoperative atresia or stenosis.
In the third case, cosmetic attention was paid to incision and suture. Attention was also paid to contraction by wound healing and to symmetrization.
