Abstract
We report 10 cases of the patients with telecanthus undergone modified transnasal wiring procedure between May, 1986 and December, 1990. The procedure of this operation is characterized as follow: Each wire is traversed through 2 holes in nasal bone to the medial canthal ligament. After piercing through the ligament, the wire is returned to the opposite medial canthal ligament over the nasal bone. Ultimately 2 ends of each wire are tied together on one side without silicone sheath. We believe that this modified procedure is more effective and simple for the correction of telecanthus with less recurrence rates than conventional method.
Key Words: Telecanthus;Transnasal wiring
