Abstract:
Recently, alternatives to intranasal packing following septoplasty and rhinoseptoplasty have been widely used and promoted. Here, we aimed to systemically review and compare the different types of nasal packing used in these two surgeries. To assess patient comfort and surgical outcomes, we conducted a comprehensive search of multiple databases such as PubMed, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar to identify and evaluate relevant articles. A detailed and extensive search was performed with the help of the keywords "nasal packing," "septoplasty," "rhinoseptoplasty," "nasal splints," and "intranasal packing." Overall, our review findings indicate that alternative methods (e.g., trans-septal suturing and insertion of intranasal splints) are better options than intranasal packing.
