Caudal septoplasty for treatment of septal deviation: aesthetic and functional correction of the nasal base Sedwick JD; Lopez AB; Gajewski BJ; Simons RLArch Facial Plast Surg 2005[May]; 7 (3): 158-62OBJECTIVES: To describe our technique in the treatment of significant caudal septal deviation; to evaluate the effectiveness of our technique of caudal septoplasty in the treatment of caudal septal deviations. DESIGN: Retrospective review of cases taken from a database of more than 2000 patients who underwent rhinoplasty performed by 1 surgeon in a private facial plastic surgery practice. RESULTS: Medical charts were reviewed to determine the rate of preoperative nasal obstruction in 59 (95%) of 62 patients as well as nasal obstruction postoperatively 11 (17%) of 62 (P < .001). Photographs were reviewed to determine the severity of caudal deviation and the postoperative result. By photographic evaluation, we found that all but 3 patients had significant improvement in their postoperative appearance. Twenty-six patients had no evidence of residual asymmetry. The rate of revision was 5 (8%) of 62 patients. CONCLUSIONS: The caudal septoplasty technique is effective, relatively easy to perform, and shows long-term reliability in correcting caudal septal deviation. In properly selected patients, the technique is effective in improving cosmesis and nasal airflow.|Esthetics[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Follow-Up Studies[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Nasal Obstruction/etiology/*surgery[MESH]|Nasal Septum/*physiopathology/*surgery[MESH]|Patient Satisfaction[MESH]|Perioperative Care[MESH]|Registries[MESH]|Retrospective Studies[MESH]|Rhinoplasty/*methods[MESH]|Risk Assessment[MESH]|Treatment Outcome[MESH] |
