[The influence of septum deviation on lung function (author's transl)]

K Schumann, K Laniado

    HNO
    |January 1, 1981
    PubMed
    Summary

    Septal deviations significantly increase tracheobronchial resistance, impacting pulmonary function. Surgery for septal deformities often improves this resistance, suggesting a nasal-pulmonary connection.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Pulmonology
    • Physiology

    Context:

    • Septal deviations are common anatomical variations.
    • The relationship between nasal structure and pulmonary mechanics is not fully understood.

    Purpose:

    • To investigate the impact of septal deviations on pulmonary function.
    • To assess changes in pulmonary function following septal surgery.

    Summary:

    • This study compared pulmonary function in 247 patients with septal deviations to 387 controls.
    • Patients with septal deformities showed a significant increase in tracheobronchial resistance (2.4 mm, P < 0.003%).
    • Functional residual capacity was not significantly affected, but tracheobronchial resistance decreased in 66.7% of patients post-surgery.

    Impact:

    • Findings suggest a probable reflex influence of nasal deviations on airway resistance.
    • Results indicate a close interdependence between nasal and pulmonary function.
    • This research may inform clinical approaches to managing patients with septal deformities and respiratory complaints.
