Many dilemmas in rhinoplasty tempt surgeons to use exogenous materials. We have long
looked toward implants to decrease operative time, to achieve a more reliable result, or …

In nasal reconstruction applications, the response of cells to titanium (Ti) implants is largely
determined by the surface characteristics of the implant. This study investigated an …

Reconstruction of bony defects with autogenous bone grafts is an integral part of modern
treatment concepts in traumatology of the craniofacial skeleton (Tessier 1982; Jackson et al …

In nasal reconstruction, the response of cells to titanium (Ti) implants is mainly determined
by surface features of the implant. In a pilot study, the authors applied electrochemical …
