Many different materials have been used to provide augmentation of the nasal dorsum. This includes both autogenous and homogenous materials, as well as allografts. Many times autogenous material is not readily available and homogenous materials have recently demonstrated significant absorption. Several artificial materials have been used in the past, including Supramid, silicone, and Proplast, each with its own limitations or problems. Two years ago we began using Gore-Tex Soft Tissue Patch as a material to augment the nasal dorsum. Although our experience is preliminary, certainly, experience with this material in cardiac and abdominal surgery is extensive. Our initial impression is that this material is a very useful alternative to traditional methods of nasal augmentation.
