Résumé
Rhinoplasty using threads has been popular for the benefits of being free from anesthesia, shortness of post-surgical recovery process, and surgery-related complications. Compared with its beneficial aspects, studies that evaluated thread rhinoplasty-related complications are relatively limited. Recently, we experienced a patient who underwent barbed thread rhinoplasty in 12 months before visiting our clinic. She presented with a firm mass-like lesion palpated through the nasal dorsum, making hump-looking appearance. During revision rhinoplasty, we found that previously inserted threads were identified from the nasal dorusam and tip area not being resorted. Threads and soft tissue on nasal dorsal area formed firm mass-like lesion and were firmly attached to surrounding soft tissues. Herein, we introduce our case in which the formation of nasal mass on dorsal area is a later complication of thread rhinoplasty.
