    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Surgical Innovation
    • Anatomy

    Context:

    • Nasal septal perforations can impair nasal function and quality of life.
    • Previous surgical methods for septal perforation closure have limitations.
    • Large perforations (up to 3 cm) pose a significant surgical challenge.

    Purpose:

    • To introduce and evaluate a new surgical technique for closing nasal septal perforations.
    • To assess the efficacy and ease of using an inferior turbinate mucoperiosteal flap for septal defect repair.

    Summary:

    • A mucoperiosteal flap was successfully rotated from the inferior turbinate to close nasal septal defects in 15 patients.
    • The technique is applicable to perforations up to 3 cm in diameter.
    • The procedure demonstrated a high rate of successful closure.

    Impact:

    • Provides a straightforward and effective surgical option for nasal septal perforation repair.
    • Offers a potential solution for challenging large septal defects.
    • May improve patient outcomes and reduce complications associated with septal perforations.
