Article Abstract
The stabilization of the midvault of the nose is an important facet of rhinoplasty. There are several techniques available to accomplish this. The use of autospreader flaps, and spreader grafts are among the most common techniques used. The availability of septal cartilage, auricular cartilage, and costal cartilage effectively permits the surgeon to use autogenous tissues in the vast majority of cases.

Endonasal techniques can reduce surrounding trauma and reduce operative times compared to traditional open methods. Options include the use of spreader, butterfly and alar batten grafts, suspension and flaring sutures, and Z-plasty for scarring.

Objectives: To compare longitudinal improvement in nasal obstruction quality-of-life outcomes between medial flap turbinoplasty (MFT) and inferior turbinate submucous resection (SMR) concurrently performed with functional septorhinoplasty.
Methods: Retrospective review of a prospectively collected cohort of patients undergoing functional septorhinoplasty between 2015 and 2022 at a tertiary academic center. Outcomes were assessed using the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) questionnaire preoperatively and over 12 months postoperatively.
