Algorithm for treatment of anterior septal deviations

by Patrizia Schiavon, MD, Maria Chiara Cimatti, MD, Rosa Maria Minniti, MD and Michela Mancini, MD on 02/24/2020

Nasal septal deviation is one of the primary causes of nasal obstructions. The septal deviations can interested caudal, dorsal or both caudal and dorsal segments. The aim of this paper is to suggest a suitable diagnostic work-up of the nasal obstruction and describe some technical surgical procedures that can be used for different nasal septum… [Read More]

Maximizing the septal graft: use of osteo-cartilaginous septal graft in rhinoplasty

by Tsung-yen Hsieh, MD, William Taylor DeBusk, MD and Peter A. Hilger, MD on 01/23/2020

Introduction The nose is a complex structure comprised of a bony-cartilaginous scaffold encased in a soft tissue envelope. These different tissue consistencies work intimately to develop the structure of the nose. In rhinoplasty, establishing form and function of this complex structure often requires grafting to the existing foundation. Conventionally, septorhinoplasty techniques often employ autogenous cartilaginous… [Read More]

The author reviews diagnostic procedures, including anterior rhinoscopy, nasal endoscopy, and coronal-sinus computed tomography scan. He discusses technical aspects of septoplasty and turbinate surgery, which address common causes of nasal obstruction, emphasizing traditional and endoscopic septoplasty, septoplasty… [Read More]

Extracorporeal septorhinoplasty for the twisted nose

by Hesham Saleh, MBBCh, FRCS and Joanne Rimmer, MBBS, MA, FRCS, FRACS on 08/31/2011

Abstract Correction of the severely twisted nose is one of the greatest challenges in septorhinoplasty. Both functional and aesthetic problems arise, and standard septoplasty and/or rhinoplasty techniques are rarely successful for such severe deviations’. We describe our technique for extracorporeal septoplasty, which may or may not be combined with rhinoplasty techniques. We use polydioxanone foil,… [Read More]

Repair of Septal Perforations in Revision Septoplasty

by Daniel G. Becker, MD on 06/23/2011

Nasal septal perforations can be problematic to patients and challenging to surgeons. The perforated nasal septum often has obliterated surgical tissue planes that may be difficult to dissect. Although the literature suggests numerous techniques for management and repair, a more limited number of techniques have achieved widespread favor. In this chapter, we provide an overview… [Read More]

Septal Perforation

by Jorge Espinosa R., MD and Hernández A. Victor, MD on 06/18/2011

A perforation of the nasal septum is considered a continuity defect in any bone or cartilage portion of the septum, with absence of the mucoperichondral or mucoperiosteal lining. It is often asymptomatic, but it may give rise to multiple uncomfortable symptoms that eventually lead patients to seek help. (Fig. 1) The diagnosis and etiology of… [Read More]
