Background:

Traditional corrective rhinoplasty for nasal bone deviation relies heavily on tactile feedback, limiting precision.
Deviated noses present challenges in achieving symmetrical nasal pyramids and correcting bony/septal deformities.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of endoscopic-assisted corrective rhinoplasty and septoplasty for deviated noses.
To compare the results of endoscopic-assisted techniques with classic rhinoplasty.

Main Methods:

Endoscopic-assisted corrective rhinoplasty and septoplasty were performed on 16 patients with deviated noses.
Patient outcomes were assessed based on nasal pyramid symmetry, recurrence of bony deflection, septal deviation, patient satisfaction, and complication rates.

Related Experiment Videos

A comparison group of 28 patients underwent classic rhinoplasty.

Main Results:

Endoscopic-assisted rhinoplasty showed a higher patient satisfaction rate (87.5%) versus classic rhinoplasty (71.4%).
The complication and revision rate was significantly lower in the endoscopic group (0%) compared to the classic group (14.3% and 7.1%).
Endoscopic control provided enhanced visualization and precision in bony and cartilage resection.

Conclusions:

Endoscopic-assisted corrective rhinoplasty offers superior visualization and precision for treating deviated noses.
This technique leads to improved aesthetic and functional results with a lower complication rate.
While requiring more time and expense, endoscopic-assisted rhinoplasty represents a significant advancement in precision surgery for nasal deformities.
