Septoplasty

Facial Plastic Surgery Clinics of North America, 2017
Nasal septal deviation is a prevalent problem that can have significant quality of life ramifications. Septoplasty is commonly performed to provide qualitative and quantitative benefit to those with nasal obstruction owing to septal deviation. Although a standard, basic technique is often adequate for individuals with mild to moderate mid to posterior ...

Endoscopic Septoplasty

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2009
Endoscopic septoplasty has gained popularity since Lanza and colleagues and Stammberger first described the technique. This technique has several advantages over the traditional "headlight" septoplasty. These advantages include superior visualization, accommodation of limited and minimally invasive septoplasty, and usefulness as an effective teaching ...

Pediatric Septoplasty

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2009
This article discusses the importance of obtaining the correct anatomic location of a nasal obstruction in the pediatric patient, the relative and absolute indications for septoplasty, and surgical techniques. Because disruption of the developing nasal septum can alter craniofacial growth patterns, the current understanding of the effect of septoplasty

Complications and Management of Septoplasty

Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America, 2010
Septoplasty is a common procedure in otolaryngology used to address nasal obstruction caused by a deviated nasal septum. It is often accompanied by inferior turbinate reduction. Complications that may arise from this procedure include excessive bleeding; cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea; extraocular muscle damage; wound infection; septal abscess; toxic ...

Cartilaginous Incisions in Septoplasty

ORL, 1996
Although cartilaginous incisions are effective in straightening the deviation of the cartilaginous septum, the resultant morbidity is seldom addressed. We examined 1,164 patients who underwent septoplasty by the senior author. The patients were randomly subjected either to septal reconstruction by conventional cartilaginous incisions or to our ...

Sagittal Section Septoplasty

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1994
The principles and methods of nasal septoplasty are reviewed. The design of a septoplasty technique based on cartilage preservation and intrinsic stabilization of the septum is discussed. An operative technique using sagittal incision of the septum to create overlapping flanges of cartilage is described.

Refinements in Extracorporal Septoplasty

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1999
Septal deviations interfere with nasal airflow and contribute to deformities in the external appearance of the nose. An aesthetically and functionally satisfactory correction of severe septal deformities or "crippled" septal plates often requires a temporary intraoperative removal of the septal cartilage for appropriate remodeling.

On the outcome of septoplasty

Rhinology Journal
In 2019 and 2023, two randomised controlled trials (RCTs) on the effectiveness of septoplasty were published (1,2). Part of the rationale for both studies was that the value of septoplasty had been questioned by policymakers, health insurance carriers and health care providers. The results of both studies showed that patients undergoing septoplasty had

Septoplasty in children

Operative Techniques in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2005
Surgery to correct nasal abnormalities in children has significant implications in the treatment of sleep disordered breathing, especially obstructive sleep apnea and snoring. Septal deformity can contribute to significant nasal obstruction, and failure to address this problem in the treatment of children with sleep disordered breathing will usually ...

Secondary Septoplasty

2016
The septum plays an important role in most cases of revision rhinoplasty, since residual deformity is often present. The residual deformity is often caused by an insufficient analysis and subsequent inappropriate or incomplete surgical technique. If this is the case, the long-term outcome is often disappointing, with drooping of the tip, saddling of ...
