The component dorsal hump reduction technique is a five-step method: (1) separation of the upper lateral cartilages from the septum, (2) incremental reduction of the septum proper, (3) dorsal bony reduction, (4) verification by palpation, and (5) final modifications (spreader grafts, suturing techniques, osteotomies).

What causes a dorsal hump?
