the tubes to the side of my face and then I kept pulling them.

and then I kept pulling them. So in order for me

So in order for me to not pull them,

to not pull them, they decided to tape it up.

>> Oh, it did? >> Yeah, inside.

>> Yeah, inside. But, see, I didn't know

But, see, I didn't know that it was damaged inside,

that it was damaged inside, and I thought it was temporary.

and I thought it was temporary. >> Unfortunately,

>> Unfortunately, we can't have that tube rub

we can't have that tube rub against any part of the nostril.

against any part of the nostril. The nostril

The nostril is very sensitive to pressure.

is very sensitive to pressure. So Devasha had this tube put in,

So Devasha had this tube put in, and what did that do?

and what did that do? That caused something

That caused something called pressure necrosis

called pressure necrosis to the nostril.

to the nostril. Pretty much eroded

Pretty much eroded right through the tissue.

right through the tissue. >> So the tubes come out.

>> So the tubes come out. You have this beautiful baby

You have this beautiful baby who's doing well at home,

who's doing well at home, but she obviously has

but she obviously has a deformity in her nose.

a deformity in her nose. You notice this, right?

You notice this, right? >> Yes.

>> Yes. >> So when she starts to age,

>> So when she starts to age, this becomes an issue, right?

this becomes an issue, right? >> Yes.

>> Yes. >> Tell us about that.

>> That's what we want to know. When did it become

When did it become an issue for you?

an issue for you? >> It didn't become an issue

>> It didn't become an issue until I started going to school,

until I started going to school, and that's when the kids started

and that's when the kids started to see that I was different,

to see that I was different, or not like them,

or not like them, and that's when the teasing

and that's when the teasing and the bullying would start.

and the bullying would start. It got to a point

It got to a point where I didn't want to be seen

where I didn't want to be seen so I would actually take

so I would actually take my lunch and eat

my lunch and eat in the girls' bathroom stall.

in the girls' bathroom stall. I didn't really speak

I didn't really speak unless people spoke to me first.

unless people spoke to me first. I didn't really go to parties.

I didn't really go to parties. I didn't really have

I didn't really have a big group of friends.

a big group of friends. So I found peace,

So I found peace, or I found relief in writing.

or I found relief in writing. I was a big writer,

I was a big writer, and that was kind of my outlet.

and that was kind of my outlet. >> What are your expectations?

>> What are your expectations? >> I want my right nostril

>> I want my right nostril to be close,

to be close, or if not identical,

or if not identical, to my left nostril.

to my left nostril. >> So you want to make it

>> So you want to make it more symmetrical?

more symmetrical? >> Yeah.

>> Yeah. >> Now, what percentage

>> Now, what percentage of symmetry

of symmetry would make you happy?

would make you happy? 50% better?

50% better? 80% close to the other side?

80% close to the other side? >> 80%.

>> 80%. >> Oh, she's got

>> Oh, she's got some high numbers there.

some high numbers there. Oh.

Oh. Let's go examine you.

Let's go examine you. >> Okay.

>> Okay. >> Girl, I'm so excited.

>> Girl, I'm so excited. >> It's extremely important

>> It's extremely important to do a thorough examination

to do a thorough examination of Devasha's nostril

of Devasha's nostril because there could be

because there could be other problems besides the skin.

other problems besides the skin. I have to look at the cartilage.

I have to look at the cartilage. I have to look at the airway.

I have to look at the airway. I have to look at the septum.

I have to look at the septum. I have to check out everything

I have to check out everything with her nose.

with her nose. Let me have two.

Let me have two. >> Here you go.

>> So the tip is deviated

>> So the tip is deviated a little bit.

a little bit. I mean, the skin,

I mean, the skin, probably a little bit more,

probably a little bit more, but inside

but inside it's completely scarred down.

it's completely scarred down. >> Yeah.

>> Yeah. >> It's interesting.

>> It's interesting. There's something else going on.

There's something else going on. If you notice, this nostril...

If you notice, this nostril... >> Yeah?

>> Yeah? >> Is a lot lower than this.

>> Is a lot lower than this. >> Yeah. We're gonna have

>> Yeah. We're gonna have a different situation.

a different situation. >> Yeah, that changes things

>> Yeah, that changes things a little bit.

a little bit. I think I need that Q-tip again.

I think I need that Q-tip again. >> Here you go.

>> Here you go. >> You have about

>> You have about 3 or 4 millimeters here.

3 or 4 millimeters here. Okay, look at that.

Okay, look at that. Here's one dome.

Here's one dome. There's the second dome.

There's the second dome. >> Yeah.

>> Yeah. >> So the tube that you had

>> So the tube that you had under your nose did a little bit

under your nose did a little bit more damage than we thought.

more damage than we thought. Your nostril is higher

Your nostril is higher because the whole cartilage

because the whole cartilage is lifted higher,

is lifted higher, probably from the tube.

probably from the tube. The second thing the tube did,

The second thing the tube did, it pretty much

it pretty much caused a lot of scar tissue

caused a lot of scar tissue and eroded,

and eroded, or pretty much ate away,

or pretty much ate away, the whole lining

the whole lining of the inside of the nose.

of the inside of the nose. >> Wow.

>> Wow. >> When someone has a very

>> When someone has a very significant nostril deformity

significant nostril deformity the way Devasha does,

the way Devasha does, it's a very complicated problem

it's a very complicated problem because you're not just dealing

because you're not just dealing with one layer of tissue.

with one layer of tissue. There's actually three layers

There's actually three layers involved

involved that you have to manipulate:

that you have to manipulate: the skin,

the skin, the internal cartilage,

the internal cartilage, and the internal lining.

and the internal lining. When you have three

When you have three of those stacked against you

of those stacked against you it's a very significant problem.

it's a very significant problem. >> See, what made your nose more

>> See, what made your nose more complex and really making 80%

complex and really making 80% really hard to achieve for me

really hard to achieve for me is that where your two nostrils,

is that where your two nostrils, where they attach to the face,

where they attach to the face, where the ala attach to your

where the ala attach to your face are at different levels.

face are at different levels. That's not really easy

That's not really easy to pull down

to pull down because it really depends

because it really depends on the anatomy, and I don't know

on the anatomy, and I don't know what it's gonna be like

what it's gonna be like when I get in there.

when I get in there. That is gonna be

That is gonna be the limiting factor.

the limiting factor. That's what makes

That's what makes this difficult.

this difficult. >> A 70% improvement

>> A 70% improvement in symmetry in actuality

in symmetry in actuality will be a 100% improvement.

will be a 100% improvement. >> So we're saying

>> So we're saying that we can do this surgery?

that we can do this surgery? >> Yes, yes.

>> Yes, yes. >> Yeah!

>> Yeah! >> We're gonna do it.

>> We're gonna do it. >> Yes.

>> Yes. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

When the last doctor told me that my case

that my case was too complicated,

was too complicated, it left me without hope.

it left me without hope. I'm definitely tired of living

I'm definitely tired of living without hope for my nose.

without hope for my nose. >> Can you guys excuse me?

>> Can you guys excuse me? >> What are you doing?

>> I know this is gonna be a tough case

a tough case because to try to get

because to try to get the nostrils perfectly symmetric

the nostrils perfectly symmetric is gonna be nearly impossible,

is gonna be nearly impossible, but I'm really confident that

but I'm really confident that we're most likely gonna be able

we're most likely gonna be able to get 70 to 75% improvement

to get 70 to 75% improvement with her nose.

with her nose. >> That's much more complicated

>> That's much more complicated than we thought by the pictures.

than we thought by the pictures. >> By the way,

>> Knowing that my nose is a little bit more complex

is a little bit more complex than I originally thought

than I originally thought makes me that much more nervous,

makes me that much more nervous, but I have confidence.

but I have confidence. I'm in good hands

I'm in good hands with Dr. Nassif.

>> The question is, is how much with Dr. Nassif.

>> The question is, is how much of your natural cartilage with Dr. Nassif.

of your natural cartilage is gonna be left in there? with Dr. Nassif.

is gonna be left in there? with Dr. Nassif. >> Okay.

>> Okay. >> You know, did some of it

>> You know, did some of it get destroyed,

get destroyed, basically disappear from having

basically disappear from having that tube in your nose?

that tube in your nose? Possibly.

Possibly. Any questions?

Any questions? >> Nope.

>> Nope. >> So Devasha has been waiting

>> So Devasha has been waiting her entire life

her entire life to get her nose fixed,

to get her nose fixed, and that nasal gastric tube,

and that nasal gastric tube, which they inserted

which they inserted through her nose,

through her nose, which then goes into

which then goes into the stomach,

the stomach, pretty much destroyed her nose,

pretty much destroyed her nose, and her nostril

and her nostril and the whole side

and the whole side of the nose is deformed.

of the nose is deformed. Our goal is to make that

Our goal is to make that right nostril look

right nostril look as good as the left nostril.

as good as the left nostril. For Devasha's surgery today,

For Devasha's surgery today, I'll start by opening up

I'll start by opening up the nose and examining

the nose and examining the natural cartilage

the natural cartilage along her left nostril

along her left nostril and septum,

and septum, while my team harvests cartilage

while my team harvests cartilage from her left ear.

from her left ear. I'll then remove both

I'll then remove both the deviated bone

the deviated bone and cartilage from her septum,

and cartilage from her septum, opening up her airway as well

opening up her airway as well as some of the skin and tissue

as some of the skin and tissue from her right ala,

from her right ala, laying in the groundwork

laying in the groundwork to shrink that nostril.

to shrink that nostril. Next, I'll attach

Next, I'll attach a septal extension graft

a septal extension graft to her tip cartilage,

to her tip cartilage, effectively lowering her tip

effectively lowering her tip and pulling down the entire

and pulling down the entire right side of the nose.

right side of the nose. Finally, to lower her nostril,

Finally, to lower her nostril, I'll add the composite graft

I'll add the composite graft to the rim of the right side

to the rim of the right side of the ala base, leaving Devasha

of the ala base, leaving Devasha with a more symmetrical nose.

with a more symmetrical nose. All right, I don't know

All right, I don't know how much cartilage we have here,

how much cartilage we have here, so we have to open up the nose.

so we have to open up the nose. Let's get going.

Let's get going. 15 blade.

15 blade. Let's see how much cartilage

Let's see how much cartilage Devasha has

Devasha has along her left nostril

along her left nostril because I want to find out

because I want to find out what the culprit is that's

what the culprit is that's pulling her whole right side

pulling her whole right side of her nose up towards her eye.

of her nose up towards her eye. Okay, she's got a real bad

Okay, she's got a real bad deviated septum on the right.

deviated septum on the right. Not only did the NG tube cause

Not only did the NG tube cause a major erosion

a major erosion of Devasha's skin

of Devasha's skin around her nose...

around her nose... but it also caused a malposition

but it also caused a malposition of the tip cartilage

of the tip cartilage on the right side.

on the right side. That is so unusual.

That is so unusual. There's some deviated bone.

>> There's a crack right there.

>> There's a crack right there. >> Oh, lovely.

>> Oh, lovely. >> Maybe you can stitch it

>> Maybe you can stitch it all together with the PDS blade.

all together with the PDS blade. We're kind of rewinding

We're kind of rewinding the clock for Devasha.

the clock for Devasha. We're taking her here where she

We're taking her here where she is with a defect in her nose,

is with a defect in her nose, and bringing her

and bringing her all the way back.

all the way back. And whether it means using

And whether it means using ear cartilage,

ear cartilage, rib cartilage, septal cartilage,

rib cartilage, septal cartilage, whatever it takes,

whatever it takes, we're gonna do it,

we're gonna do it, and we're gonna

and we're gonna get it done today.

get it done today. At this point,

At this point, Devasha does not need rib

Devasha does not need rib because she has an adequate

because she has an adequate supply of cartilage

supply of cartilage in her septum.

in her septum. Okay, we're placing

Okay, we're placing this septal extension graft

this septal extension graft and that's gonna help

and that's gonna help lower her nostrils,

lower her nostrils, but in addition,

but in addition, what it's gonna do,

what it's gonna do, it's gonna help me

it's gonna help me pull the right side

pull the right side of the nose down

of the nose down by attaching the tip cartilage

by attaching the tip cartilage to the septal extension graft.

to the septal extension graft. Today I have to place

Today I have to place an extremely large

an extremely large composite graft

composite graft from Devasha's ear

from Devasha's ear into her nose.

into her nose. And what's worrisome about that

And what's worrisome about that is, one, is it gonna be

is, one, is it gonna be too big to survive?

too big to survive? So we just are on that fine line

So we just are on that fine line of correcting the problem,

of correcting the problem, making her look good,

making her look good, but at the same point

but at the same point not killing the graft.

not killing the graft. And our challenge

And our challenge we're facing right now

we're facing right now is to try to bring down

is to try to bring down the right ala, or the nostril,

the right ala, or the nostril, so that it'll match the left.

so that it'll match the left. And we're almost there.

And we're almost there. We're playing with it.

We're playing with it. We are getting some movement.

We are getting some movement. Not perfect yet.

Not perfect yet. There is that risk

There is that risk that the blood supply that's

that the blood supply that's gonna feed the composite graft

gonna feed the composite graft may not be great enough,

may not be great enough, and that composite graft

and that composite graft can die.

can die. That's what

That's what we don't want to happen.

we don't want to happen. Septoplasty, turbinoplasty

Septoplasty, turbinoplasty have been done.

have been done. Septal extension graft.

Septal extension graft. That nostril

That nostril came down a good amount.

came down a good amount. So Devasha's gonna get

So Devasha's gonna get a lot more symmetry

a lot more symmetry between her nostrils.

>> Let's go ahead

>> Let's go ahead and put the 270 on the left.

and put the 270 on the left. Kendra's really a set-up

Kendra's really a set-up for a significant complication

for a significant complication due to the reduced blood supply

due to the reduced blood supply and thin skin,

and thin skin, so I'm not celebrating
