Abstract: Two cases of saddle nose correction with porus hydroxyapatite ceramics implant under open rhinoplasty technique are reported.Since hydroxyapatite ceramic s has been used successfully for the reconstruction of bony defects in recent years, its good affinity for tissue has already been admitted. Patients are satisfied with the outcome. No functional disorders and no changes were noted during follow-up periods of seven to eighteen months.This method has eliminated the d ifficulty of obtaining an adequate graft and has simplified the saddle nose correction procedure.
