In situ split costal cartilage graft harvesting through a small incision using a gouge
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2000) Ağaoğlu, Galip; Erol, O. Onur
A costal cartilage graft is one of the most useful materials in reconstructive plastic surgery. In this article a technique of in situ split costal cartilage graft harvesting through a small incision (2 to 3 cm) using a gouge is described. The technique used has many advantages: it is a simple technique is easy to learn and can be performed quickly through a small incision. By avoiding complete costal cartilage graft harvesting the associated potential complications such as pleural perforation chest wall deformities long-lasting postoperative pain and incisional scar length are reduced. This technique will be useful in selected cases for which a complete block of costal cartilage graft is not needed.

Reconstruction of the superior labial sulcus in secondary bilateral cleft lip deformities: An inverted U-shaped flap
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2001) Erol, O. Onur; Ağaoğlu, Galip
A shallow buccal sulcus deformity following bilateral cleft lip repair is not rare. A variety of techniques are described for the secondary reconstruction of a deficient sulcus. Most of these are associated with a variable amount of contraction with subsequent obliteration of the sulcus. In this article an inverted U-shaped flap is described for the secondary reconstruction of the deficient sublabial sulcus. In these patients mobility of the upper lip was severely restricted so orthodontic treatment was not possible. This technique was used in nine patients whose primary cleft lip repairs were performed in different institutions. The amount of re-adhesion or contraction was negligible because a bare surface was not left behind and skin or mucosal grafts were not used. By advancing the lateral segments of the lip medially projection of the upper lip was increased. The procedure resulted in adequate upper lip mobility for all patients and sufficient sulcus was maintained during 1 to 6 years of follow-up. The patients experienced no difficulty with orthodontic appliances after this reconstruction.
