How to remove mesh and reconstruct a contracted nose

In a patient presenting with post-inflammatory nasal contracture and nasal obstruction, unexpected mesh and residual donor rib cartilage found in the nasal tip were removed. The entire septum and both lower lateral cartilages were then reconstructed using autologous rib cartilage.
