Abstract
Background: Tessier No. 0 cleft, characterized by a bifid nose, significantly impacts facial development, imposing significant psychological and financial burdens on patients. Correction lacks consensus due to varied presentations and limited documentation of surgical treatments, notably in adults.
Methods: Loco-regional soft tissue flaps can address minor deformities, but establishing a robust skeletal framework is often crucial for permanent correction. Methods: This article introduces a novel and effective approach through reconstructive septorhinoplasty for addressing this anomaly.
