Table 1.
Demographic Data for Patients Undergoing Rhinoplasty
| Procedure Performed | Age (Mean) | Sex (M:F) |
|---|---|---|
| Muscle modification (n = 29) | 28.25 | 2:27 |
| Muscle plus strut graft (n = 11) | 35.25 | 3:9 |
The table shows that there was no bias in the distribution of the patients, as each was part of a consecutive series. The strut group is smaller, which has an impact on the P value of the data. However, the analysis of results shows a clear difference between the 2 groups, in that the strut group experience less dynamic tip droop compared with the muscle division alone group.
