Dual-stage septum-to-nasal spine fixation suture for enhanced caudal septal stability
1Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, Bezmialem Vakif University, Istanbul, Türkiye. nzndegirmenci@hotmail.com.
Background:
For optimal outcomes in caudal septal deviation repair, it is crucial to establish a secure and stable fixation between the septal cartilage (SC) and the anterior nasal spine (ANS) of the maxilla.
Method:
This technical note presents a dual-stage septum-to-nasal spine fixation suture technique developed to overcome the rotational and stability limitations that may occur when an F8 suture alone is applied in certain cases.
Conclusion:
By achieving multidirectional stabilization without increasing procedural complexity, this technique offers a practical and improved method for SC-ANS fixation.

01:22Sutures of the Skull
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
01:14Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...
01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
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...
