Abstract: Autologous grafts are used in rhinoplasty for cosmetic purposes and structural reconstruction. Among the various cartilaginous autografts, rib cartilage plays a key role because it offers strong structural support and there is abundant material supply. Otolaryngology head and neck surgeons should be familiar with the advantages and disadvantages of rib cartilage usage in order to manage the associated techniques and avoid possible complications.

Key words: Autologous graft, Rib cartilage, Rhinoplasty
