Abstract:
The purpose of this guideline is to promote a high-quality specialty care for patients with structural irregularities of the internal and/or external nose associated with functional and/or relevant aesthetic impairment. The guideline was designed for use in the outpatient and inpatient specialist medical care and is therefore specifically targeted to specialists of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery and Plastic Surgery. The guideline was interdisciplinarily developed according to the specifications of the German guideline commission "AWMF" as a so called "S2k" guideline. This guideline refers to structural disturbances of the internal and external nose, where normalization due to functional and/or relevant aesthetic reasons is required. Cosmetic rhinoplasty is not covered by this guideline.
