Insights
Ultrasound-guided nasal fracture repair in children significantly reduces operation time and improves nasal function and appearance compared to endoscopic repair. This method enhances patient satisfaction and lowers complication rates, promoting better recovery.

Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of intraoperative ultrasound-guided nasal bone fracture repair on the clinical outcome of pediatric patients with nasal bone fracture. Methods:A total of 83 patients with nasal bone fracture who underwent prosthesis in our hospital from June 2022 to March 2024 were selected and assigned to control group （endoscopic nasal bone fracture repair） and experimental group （ultrasound-guided nasal bone fracture repair） using random number table method. Both groups were treated with the same nursing measures after surgery. There were 41 cases in the control group and 42 cases in the experimental group. The evaluation parameters of nasal bone fracture, nasal ventilation function, nasal appearance and olfactory function score, postoperative complications and satisfaction were compared between the two groups. Results:The operation time and hospital stay were significantly lower in the experimental group than in the control group （P<0.05）, and secondary repair case （n=0） in the experimental group was significantly less than in the control group （P<0.05）. Compared to preoperative status, the minimum nasal cross-sectional area, nasal volume and total nasal expiratory volume of the two groups increased three months post-operatively, and those in the experimental group were higher （P<0.05）, nasal expiratory and inspiratory resistance, nasal appearance and olfactory disorder scores decreased and those in the experimental group were lower （P<0.05）. The postoperative complications incidence in the experimental group was lower than in the control group （7.14% and 14.63%, respectively, P>0.05）. The overall satisfaction in the experimental group was higher than in the control group（90.48% and 82.93%, respectively, P>0.05）. Conclusion:Ultrasound-guided nasal fracture repair can effectively shorten the operation time, improve the success rate, and promote the postoperative recovery of nasal appearance and nasal function, reduce complications, and enhance the overall satisfaction of children and their families.
