Background: Nose deviation deformities pose a complex cosmetic and functional problem. The most common surgical intervention to manage such deformities is septorhinoplasty, typically performed by a plastic surgeon or a rhinologist. This study investigated the effect of a combined operation by a plastic surgeon and rhinologist, comparing them with those operations performed singlehandedly by a plastic surgeon.

Background: Empty nose syndrome (ENS) is a poorly understood condition that affects a minority of patients who undergo inferior turbinate (IT) surgery. The Empty Nose Syndrome 6-item Questionnaire (ENS6Q) was validated to diagnose ENS following IT reduction, with an ENS6Q ≥ 11 being suggestive of ENS. Medial flap turbinoplasty (MFT) involves IT bone removal ± submucosal reduction (SMR) and is highly effective at surgically treating IT hypertrophy.

Müllerian anomalies (MA) occur as a result of errors during embryogenesis. These changes are associated with genetic mutations, developmental disabilities, or environmental causes that affect the embryonic development stages. This paper describes a rare case report of a 22-year-old female who came to our hospital due to dyspareunia after one year of evolution.

Patients who underwent cleft lip surgery in childhood may develop nasal malformation later in life. Various procedures have been described to correct these malformations. This study aims to describe our surgical approach and assess the morphometric outcomes of secondary cleft-lip rhinoplasty performed at the plastic surgery department in Marseille between 2002 and 2022.

Deviated nasal septum (DNS) is a common condition affecting nasal breathing, which is generally treated using septoplasty. However, this invasive surgical method carries potential risks of post-surgical complications. Alternatively, electromechanical reshaping (EMR) is a novel method that has evolved as a non-thermal, minimally invasive option to reshape the cartilage using mechanical pressure and direct current (DC) without significant tissue damage.

Background: Restoration of a straight and adequately wide nasal dorsum is challenging in patients with deviated noses. Supporting a reformed septum with an extended spreader graft (ESG) is important for maintaining position.
Objective: The study aimed to describe different types of ESG and propose a comprehensive algorithm for using specific types of ESGs in rhinoplasty according to the particular type of deviated nose.

Objective: Accurate management of acute nasoseptal fractures can mitigate cosmetic and functional complications. There is a lack of consensus on the ideal approach to manage acute nasoseptal fractures, which are often addressed with closed nasal and/or septal reduction (CN/SR) but sometimes addressed using an open approach with septoplasty. We aimed to systematically assess and compare outcomes of CN/SR versus open approaches to treat acute nasoseptal fractures.

Obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSA) is a multi-factorial disorder, with quite complex endotypes, consisting of anatomical and non-anatomical pathophysiological factors. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is recognized as the first-line standard treatment for OSA, whereas upper airway (UA) surgery is often recommended for treating mild OSA patients who have refused or cannot tolerate CPAP, mild and primary snorers. The main results achievable by the surgery are UA expansion, and/or stabilization, and/or removal of the obstructive tissue to different UA levels.

Unlabelled: To reduce the inflammatory reaction that occurs in the nasal mucosa after surgical interventions, it seems promising to develop methods of preventive preparation of the epithelium to the effects of damaging factors in the preoperative period.
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the protective effect of sodium deoxyribonuclease solution on the nasal mucosa in the preoperative period in rhinological patients.
Material And Methods: 71 patients were examined after septoplasty with vasotomy of the lower nasal concha for curvature of the nasal septum and vasomotor rhinitis.
Unlabelled: In otorhinolaryngology, the question of improving the tactics of early postoperative management in patients who have undergone surgery on the structures of the nasal cavity remains open. The timing of rehabilitation, the possible outcome of postoperative inflammation of the mucous membrane and the patient's ability to work depend on the choice of tactics. The nasal cavity differs from other anatomical areas in its rich blood supply, and therefore the problem of adequate hemostasis in the early stages after undergoing surgical treatment is still extremely relevant.

Nasoalveolar cysts are rare, nonodontogenic cysts with a subtle course that can lead to nasal deformity and, uncommonly, nasal airway obstruction. Herein the authors present the case of a 28-year-old male who presented with a recurrent left-sided nasoalveolar cyst. Upon presentation, this cyst had formed a significant alar defect and was obstructing the left nasal airway.

Background: Perioperative bleeding is a challenge in rhinoplasty and septoplasty. Tranexamic acid (TXA) may help reduce this, but its effectiveness is unclear. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate TXA's impact on bleeding in these procedures.

Objectives: Nasal septal deviation can cause nasal breathing issues, contribute to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) development, and often hinders successful CPAP therapy. We hypothesized that although prevalent in the general population, nasal septal deviations differ structurally between OSA and non-OSA patients. This study evaluated nasal septal deviation morphology in OSA versus non-OSA patients using computed tomography (CT).

To investigate disparities in sensitisation to Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin A/B (SEA/SEB) and olfactory function in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), those with CRS without nasal polyps (CRSsNP), and healthy controls who underwent septoplasty only. We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 388 subjects aged ≥ 8 years, collected between January 2021 and June 2023. We analysed patient demographics, medical history, serum IgE levels against staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs), and serum total IgE levels against inhalant allergens.

Background Eustachian tube dysfunction is characterized by insufficient dilation, leading to secondary pathologies in the middle ear. By comparing pre- and post-operative grades of Eustachian tube function and nasal resistance measurements, this study seeks to determine if septoplasty can improve Eustachian tube function in cases where nasal septal deviation is likely to cause mechanical dysfunction. We also aim to validate the Jain Bhalerao endoscopic classification of nasal septal deviation by assessing its utility in identifying septal deviations at a higher risk of causing Eustachian tube dysfunction.

With the increase in life expectancy and awareness, more otorhinolaryngologic surgeries are being performed in the elderly population. Otorhinolaryngologic surgeries like septoplasty, tympanoplasty, and dacryocystorhinostomy (DCR) surgeries are elective surgeries for improving the quality of life. However, post-operative medication can entail a risk to life or serious side effects in elderly patients.

Nasal valve treatment with TCRF results in NAO symptom improvement in the presence of septal deviation. Severe septal deviation does not impact the beneficial effect of TCRF nasal valve treatment. Symptoms improve with TCRF nasal valve treatment even if septal deviations involve the nasal valve.
