Secondary cleft-lip rhinoplasty utilizing porous high-density polyethylene.
Facial Plastic Surgery : FPS 2003 November
Secondary nasal deformity associated with cleft lip is a difficult surgical task. For more than 100 years, numerous surgical methods have been created to address the structural changes that occur over time after the primary surgery.

In this article, we describe our 10-year experience with porous high-density polyethylene (PHDPE) implants in secondary cleft-lip rhinoplasty. PHDPE implants have been well tolerated and achieved excellent long-term aesthetic results through fibrovascular ingrowth to the surrounding tissue.
