It compares their advantages and disadvantages. The applications of cartilaginous grafts in primary and secondary septorhinoplasty are studied and illustrated by some clinical cases. Conclusion: the cartilage is the most reliable means of reconstruction that can be used in septorhinoplasty and it is, by far, the most used by the majority of authors.
