Preparation: Before using the osteotome, ensure that the surgical site is properly prepared, and the patient is under anesthesia. The area of the nose where the osteotomy will be performed should be marked based on the surgical plan.

Sterilization: Like all surgical instruments, the Gubisch osteotome must be properly sterilized before use to prevent infections. Ensure that it has been sterilized according to the appropriate protocols.

Positioning: Hold the osteotome firmly but gently in your dominant hand, with the blade facing downward. The aluminum handle provides a comfortable grip and control during the procedure.

Incision: Make a small incision in the marked area of the nose where the osteotomy will be performed. This incision provides access for the osteotome to reach the bone.

Placement: Carefully insert the blade of the osteotome into the incision, positioning it at the desired location for the osteotomy. Take care to avoid damaging surrounding tissue.

Osteotomy: Once the osteotome is properly positioned, gently apply pressure to the handle to begin the osteotomy. The sharp blade will cut through the bone, creating the desired separation or reshaping. Take care to control the depth and angle of the cut to achieve the desired results.

Repeat as necessary: Depending on the surgical plan, you may need to perform multiple osteotomies to achieve the desired nasal shape and structure. Repeat the process as needed, always being careful to maintain precision and control.

Assessment: After completing the osteotomies, assess the results to ensure that the desired changes have been achieved. Make any necessary adjustments before closing the incisions and completing the procedure.

Post-operative care: Provide appropriate post-operative care to the patient, including monitoring for any complications and providing instructions for wound care and recovery.

It’s important to note that the use of surgical instruments like the Gubisch osteotome requires proper training and experience. Always follow established surgical protocols and guidelines to ensure patient safety and optimal outcomes. Additionally, specific techniques and variations may exist depending on the surgeon’s preferences and the specific requirements of the case.
