Independent doctor profile
A graft can support airflow and alter contour
Kadir Serkan Orhan is an ENT professor in Istanbul University’s current academic record. His rhinology training in Nijmegen and publications on nasal grafts give this profile a structural focus: a proposed change to the internal valve may also matter to the width and contour seen from outside.

01
The valve and the visible middle vault
Name the problem before naming the graft
A narrow middle vault, a deviated septum and a weak valve are not interchangeable findings. A consultation should explain what examination supports a proposed graft, where material would come from, and whether the support could change the dorsal outline. The university profile does not establish a particular operating facility or that any one graft is needed.
Read international training accurately
The record supports training activity in the Netherlands and London, and lists English language proficiency. It does not measure UK patient demand, offer a comparative ranking or confirm a travel pathway. Before arranging care abroad, ask where treatment and follow-up would take place.

Istanbul, Nijmegen and London in context
- 1999–2004
Istanbul training and a Nijmegen rhinology placement
His university record lists medical studies from 1993 to 1999 and ENT specialist training from 1999 to 2004 at Istanbul Medical Faculty. It lists rhinology and facial-plastic training at St Radboud University in Nijmegen in 2003. A 2012 Royal National ENT Hospital placement in London concerned otology and skull-base surgery, not a UK rhinoplasty qualification.

Graft choice has more than 1 consequence
Orhan coauthored a 2008 study about how spreader grafts affect nasal dorsal width in patients with valve insufficiency. His 2013 review discusses graft materials and possible complications. These publications identify questions about structural support and visible contour; they do not establish a current signature method or predict an individual result.

What the graft papers establish
Evidence reviewed:
A valve study also asked about width
Orhan coauthored a 2008 study of spreader grafts and nasal dorsal width in people with valve insufficiency. A separate 2013 review discusses graft materials and possible complications. Neither publication determines whether a graft is needed for a new patient or which appearance that patient would prefer.

Verify the actual clinician and facility
Read the London entry precisely
The university record lists a London otology and skull-base placement, and separate rhinology training in Nijmegen. Neither confirms UK rhinoplasty practice or a patient pathway. Online rankings and anonymous reviews cannot substitute for a case-specific plan, facility confirmation and a written follow-up arrangement.
