A prospective study of nasal fractures
The Journal of Laryngology and Otology
|May 1, 1986
Summary
This study evaluated the effectiveness of manipulation under anesthesia for nasal fractures using pre- and post-operative photos. The findings provide insights into surgical outcomes for nasal fracture repair.
Area of Science:
- Otolaryngology
- Plastic Surgery
- Medical Imaging
Background:
- Nasal fractures are common facial injuries.
- Surgical intervention, including manipulation under anesthesia (MUA), is often required for correction.
- Objective assessment of outcomes is crucial for evaluating treatment efficacy.
Purpose of the Study:
- To prospectively assess the outcomes of manipulation under anesthesia for nasal fractures.
- To utilize standardized photographic documentation for objective evaluation.
- To analyze the results and contribute to the understanding of MUA for nasal fractures.
Main Methods:
- Prospective survey of 60 patients undergoing MUA for nasal fractures.
- Collection of standardized pre- and post-operative photographs.
- Utilized a standardized proforma for data collection and assessment.
Main Results:
- Results of the prospective survey are presented.
- Photographic evidence was used to evaluate outcomes.
- Discussion of findings related to MUA for nasal fractures.
Conclusions:
- The study provides data on the efficacy of MUA for nasal fractures.
- Standardized photography aids in objective outcome assessment.
- Further discussion on the implications of the findings is provided.

Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The lateral view of the cranium is dominated by temporal, sphenoid, and ethmoid bones.
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...

Epistaxis
Epistaxis, or nosebleeds, occurs when small, swollen blood vessels in the nasal mucous membrane rupture. Typically, the anterior septum is the primary site of occurrence.
Etiology
Possible causes of this condition include high blood pressure, trauma, low humidity, upper respiratory tract infections, allergies, foreign bodies, nasal inhalation of corticosteroids or illicit drugs, excessive use of decongestant nasal sprays, facial or nasal surgery, anatomic malformation, tumors, or systemic...
