Background:
Septoplasty is a crucial step during rhinoplasty to correct the nose function and nasal aesthetics. The idea is not investigated regarding the educational purposes. Objective of the study is to evaluate the efficiency of endoscopic septoplasty during full job rhinoplasty and to observe its educational benefit.
Methods:
Twenty-seven patients who submitted for prospective study of endoscopic septorhinoplasty operation; the analysis involves 16 female patients and 11 males.
Results:
Endoscopic septoplasty during rhinoplasty showed an efficient illumination and visualization, which improved the precision and has an educational benefit during the reform of the posterior septum, isolated septal spurs, anterior septum, and middle turbinate attachments.
Conclusion:
The procedure allows a precise septal job with excellent visualization of the anterior and posterior septum. It also has an intraoperative educational benefit and helps to soothe the time down of patient's recovery.
