La vía endonasal, con incisión transcartilaginosa, se emplea principalmente cuando no hay alteraciones significativas en la estructura cartilaginosa de la punta nasal.  Objetivo:  Determinar los cambios morfológicos que se producen en la punta nasal, posterior a la rinoplastia transcartilaginosa.  Métodos:  Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, prospectivo, longitudinal en 15 pacientes con deformidad estética de la punta nasal, operados por rinoplastia transcartilaginosa en el Hospital &#8220;Hermanos Ameijeiras&#8221;, entre el 2016 y el 2020. Las variables estudiadas fueron: ángulo nasolabial, ancho de la punta nasal, porciento de reducción del ancho de la punta nasal, relación longitud nasal-proyección de la punta nasal y estado de satisfacción de los pacientes.  Resultados: Se produjo un estrechamiento de la punta nasal, de una media del ancho preoperatorio de 64,8 % con relación a la base nasal, a una media del 60,1 % para el posoperatorio, para una media del porciento de reducción del ancho de la punta nasal posoperatoria de 7,3 %. En el resto de las variables estudiadas, aun cuando existieron cambios individuales, como grupo no hubo variación respecto al predominio de las categorías ideales.  Conclusiones: Se produjeron modificaciones posoperatorias que tributaron en un refinamiento de la punta nasal, con un alto grado de satisfacción de los pacientes operados.  Palabras clave:  rinoplastia endonasal; modificación de la punta nasal; mediciones antropométricas.]]></p></abstract>

The endonasal route, with a transcartilaginous incision, is mainly used when there are no significant alterations in the cartilaginous structure of the nasal tip.  Objective:  To determine the morphological changes that occur in the nasal tip after transcartilaginous rhinoplasty.  Methods:  A descriptive, prospective, longitudinal study was carried out in 15 patients with aesthetic deformity of the nasal tip, who were operated by transcartilaginous rhinoplasty at Hermanos Ameijeiras Hospital, from 2016 to 2020. The variables studied were nasolabial angle, width of the nasal tip, percentage of reduction in the width of the nasal tip, relationship between the nasal length and the projection of the nasal tip, and the patients' satisfaction status.  Results:  There was a narrowing of the nasal tip, starting from a preoperative mean width of 64.8% in relation to the nasal base, to a postoperative mean of 60.1%, resulting in a mean percentage reduction in width of the postoperative nasal tip of 7.3%. No variation was observed regarding the predominance of the ideal categories in the rest of the variables studied, even when there were individual changes, as a group. Conclusions: Postoperative modifications were produced that contributed to a refinement of the nasal tip, with a high degree of satisfaction of the operated patients.]]></p></abstract>
