Background: Aesthetic rhinoplasty is one of the most challenging procedures performed by aesthetic surgeons. Tip droop, especially on smiling, may not be noted by the surgeon postoperatively but can be concerning to patients. Our aim was to determine if the division of the depressor septi nasi or its combination with a columellar strut graft during rhinoplasty produce a measurable reduction in nasal tip droop on smiling. Methods: A retrospective casenote and photograph review was conducted on patients who had undergone aesthetic endonasal rhinoplasty, performed by a single surgeon between 2015 and 2019. In total, 29 patients had release of the depressor septi nasi muscle, whilst 11 had release of the muscle along with a strut graft. Lateral smiling photographs were taken postoperatively. Tip droop was measured as a variation of the nasolabial angle from rest to smiling using the Frankfurt line. Results: Photographs were taken at a mean of 14 months postoperatively. In the group who had muscle release only, a mean increase in nasolabial angle of 3.66 degrees was seen when smiling when compared with rest. In the group who had muscle release combined with strut graft, a mean increase of 2.27 degrees was seen. When using a columellar strut along with muscle release, tip droop on smiling was reduced. Conclusions: This study demonstrates that columellar strut grafting in combination with muscle release can alleviate drooping of the tip better than muscle division alone after rhinoplasty. The columellar strut graft provides tip stability and can therefore be used to enhance dynamic outcomes after rhinoplasty.

“…This reflects the willingness that requires processing data from plastic surgery systematically, as well as a forthrightness to artificial intelligence upheaval. Finally, the American Society for Cosmetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) initiated the Aesthetic Neural Network (ANN), which is a preliminary method for refining treatments and modelling economics (Chandawarkar et al 2020).…”

Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare

Now in these days, artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a major role in healthcare. It has many applications in diagnosis, robotic surgeries, and research, powered by the growing availability of healthcare facts and brisk improvement of analytical techniques. AI is launched in such a way that it has similar knowledge as a human but is more efficient. A robot has the same expertise as a surgeon; even if it takes a longer time for surgery, its sutures, precision, and uniformity are far better than the surgeon, leading to fewer chances of failure. To make all these things possible, AI needs some sets of algorithms. In Artificial Intelligence, there are two key categories: machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NPL), both of which are necessary to achieve practically any aim in healthcare. The goal of this study is to keep track of current advancements in science, understand technological availability, recognize the enormous power of AI in healthcare, and encourage scientists to use AI in their related fields of research. Discoveries and advancements will continue to push the AI frontier and expand the scope of its applications, with rapid developments expected in the future.

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made steady in-roads into the healthcare scenario over the last decade. While widespread adoption into clinical practice remains elusive, the outreach of this discipline has progressed beyond the physician scientist, and different facets of this technology have been incorporated into the care of surgical patients. New AI applications are developing at rapid pace, and it is imperative that the general surgeon be aware of the broad utility of AI as applicable in his or her day-to-day practice, so that healthcare continues to remain up-to-date and evidence based. This review provides a broad account of the tip of the AI iceberg and highlights it potential for positively impacting surgical care.
