Nasal Tip, Bifid

Definition:

Subjective: Visually assessable vertical indentation, cleft, or depression of the nasal tip

Comments:

Note that this definition does not require that the tip is wide. The division should be visible at inspection and not just palpable, as a palpable bifid tip is usual. If a bifid nasal tip goes along with an indentation or cleft of the nasal ridge and the nasal bridge, this should be coded as Bifid nose.

Replaces:

• Nasal Cartilages, Separated
