On rhinoplasty
On 5/V1 1926, patient A. L. was admitted to the Surgical Department of the Vetluga Hospital. L., forty years old, with a missing nasal tip. It turned out that the tip had been bitten off by her husband six months ago. Both the coccyx and a portion of the wings of the nose were missing. Other than this she has no other illnesses. An operation was performed on 7/VI under novocaine. For nasal tip formation a part of the patient's auricle greater than one centimeter in width and about one centimeter in length, of full thickness, was taken and freely transferred to the previously prepared, refreshed surface of the nose by removing the scar tissue. The graft took root well. The nose, to the displeasure of the patient's husband, turned out quite beautiful. Healing passed without any complications. The stitches were taken off on 12/VI and the patient was discharged on 3/VII. The temperature was normal all the time. The patient was kept in the hospital for some time to see if there would be any changes in the newly formed nasal tip, but there were none.
