Comparison of Subjective and Objective Success of Septoplasty in Patients with Nasal Septum Deviation: A Before and After Study

Objective: Aim of the study is to evaluate subjective outcomes and objective postoperatively investigate correlations between these measurements. Material Methods: This prospective before after surgical was conducted with patients admitted symptomatic nasal septum deviation (NSD) who underwent Cottle’s septoplasty. Morphometric diameters cavity were measured using a multi-detector computed tomography. Preoperative postoperative one-month Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation Scale (NOSE) score, acoustic rhinometry (AR), anterior active rhinomanometry (AAR) measurements used success surgery. The also evaluated. Results: population consisted 30 patients, including 19 males 11 females, median age 27.5 years. There statistically significant difference pre NOSE scores, mean 53.17 points (p<0.001). differences AR parameters both deviated side (DS) non-deviated (NDS) nose decongestion. improvements in all airflow airway resistance DS decongestion when compared preoperative moderate large positive morphometric score. Further, there several AAR Conclusion: Our findings showed that are strongly correlated
