Although there is no difference in the techniques of male and female rhinoplasty, the anthropometric differences have to be considered. This morphometric study evaluated the nasal shapes in both sexes and the related differences in the nostril forms. The nostril forms were separated into 4 main groups such as teardrop, heart shaped, round, and triangular. In this landmark-based morphometric study, significant relations of nostril forms to the nasal shape, frontonasal, and nasolabial angles were found. The results of this study should make us think about these relations of nostril forms to the nasal shapes and should be a basement for further clinical studies enhancing the plans of the corrective surgery.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSurgeryMorphometryNoseNostrilPhotogram-metryAdolescentAdultCephalometryFemaleHumansMaleNosePhotogrammetryPhotographyReference valuesRhinoplastySex characteristicsYoung adultArticle0002595034000332-s2.0-582490865361402140819518812872SurgeryCleft Lip; Nose Reconstruction; Facial AsymmetryAdultArticleControlled studyCraniofacial morphologyFemaleHumanMaleNormal humanNoseNose reconstructionPriority journalSex differenceSurgical anatomyAdolescentCephalometryHistologyPhotographyReference valueSexual development
