The technique of external rhinoplasty has enjoyed a renaissance over the last ten years, primarily for cosmetic and functional septorhinoplasty, and we have found this to be an effective method for nasal reconstruction. Moreover, we have recognized the versatility of this approach for a variety of rhinologic problems and have utilized it for transsphenoidal hypophysectomy, sphenoidotomy, unilateral choanal atresia, septal perforation, nasal valvuloplasty and rhinophyma. We describe our technique and the rationale for employing it. We conclude that the enhanced exposure provided by the cutaneous decortication of the nose facilitates surgery of both the soft tissues and the supportive architecture of the nose.
