ABSTRACT:
Nasal bones are fixed in place after surgery or injury by the placement of a casting material over the outer surface of the nose, precut to conform to the dimensions of the nose. The casting material is a resin-impregnated fibrous sheet, the resin being curable to a hardened form upon exposure to atmospheric moisture. The resin-impregnated fibrous sheet is similar in chemical composition to casting tapes used for long-bone fractures where the tapes are wrapped around a limb that has been encased in a padding material.
