Quality Medical Publishing 2016 Bergamo Advanced Mini-Fellowship in Revision Rhinoseptoplasty

Dr. Robotti performs three surgeries as part of the 2016 Bergamo Advanced Mini-Fellowship in Revision Rhinoseptoplasty. Each surgery begins with a preoperative examination of clinical photos, CT scans, and postoperative simulation to fully demonstrate the clinical analysis and subsequent precise planning for each patient. Dr. Robotti takes the viewer from markings, incision, and dissection, to placement of grafts, including harvest of rib and temporalis fascia, and finally, to closure and postoperative dressing with discussion of results. Viewers are sure to benefit from the tips to improve outcomes and avoid complications that Dr. Robotti shares with the fellowship students during each of the surgeries. Postoperative photos for each patient are included to demonstrate the results over time.
Learning Objectives

To conduct thorough preoperative clinical analyses and formulate precise surgical plans using clinical photography, CT imaging, and surgical simulations.

To execute the fundamental steps of revision rhinoseptoplasty, including accurate markings, incisions, and complex structural dissections.

To harvest and successfully place specialized grafts, specifically rib cartilage, temporalis fascia, and diced cartilage fascia (DCF).

To manage severe nasal deformities—such as crooked noses, septal fistulas, residual open roofs, and saddling—using advanced techniques like laminated rib frameworks, modified extracorporeal septoplasty, and differential osteotomies.

To implement intraoperative tips and techniques designed to optimize aesthetic and functional outcomes while avoiding common complications in secondary surgeries.

Target Audience

This program is directed toward the fellowship students participating in the 2016 Bergamo Advanced Mini-Fellowship, as well as surgeons seeking to improve their outcomes and avoid complications in complex rhinoplasty cases.
Best for Plastic Surgeons, Facial Plastic Surgeons, Otolaryngologists (ENT Surgeons), and Maxillofacial Surgeons.
