文摘

Complete congenital arhinia is a rare embryonic disorder of unknown etiology. This is a clinical report of the prosthetic nasal rehabilitations done in the early childhood and adolescent stages of a patient with complete congenital arhinia. Additive manufacturing techniques for creating presurgical planning models to assist in the creation of new nasal passages are also described. These rare disorders can be successfully rehabilitated if patients are sufficiently motivated and there is meticulous planning and collaboration from a multidisciplinary team.
