Endoscopic repair of nasal septal perforation
نویسنده
چکیده
Surgical closure of nasal septal perforation is one of the most challenging procedures in nasal surgery. During the last decade, many endoscopic repair techniques have been described with a success of post-operative repair between 76.4% and 100%. The advantages of this approach are its minimal invasiveness (with no external scars), optimal exposure of the operative field (with better visibility of structures) and good control of perforation margins. The drawbacks are that it is time-consuming and can be difficult to perform, requiring years of endoscopic experience. In this review, all the relevant literature published in which repair was completely made endoscopically is overviewed, comparing the success rates, diameter of the perforation and materials used for the repair.

متن کاملEndoscopic Endonasal Repair of Septal Perforation with Interpositional Auricular Cartilage Grafting via a Mucosal Regeneration Technique.
We evaluated the efficacy of interpositional auricular cartilage grafting for perforation with an endoscopic endonasal approach via a mucosal regeneration technique. In total, 12 patients with symptomatic septal perforations were operated on by way of an endoscopic endonasal approach after an adequately sized cartilage graft was harvested. The graft was inserted between the circumferentially in...

The purpose of this paper is to report on our surgical technique and the results of the treatment for nasal septal perforations. METHODS From May 2001 to March 2008, 14 patients (12 males ...
متن کاملPINION Nasal septal perforation repair: predictive factors and systematic review of the literature
Purpose of review Although numerous surgical techniques have been introduced thus far in order to achieve the surgical closure of nasal septal perforation, the repair of nasal septal perforation is still challenging for surgeons and operative techniques are not standardized. Furthermore, predictive factors for successful closure have not been elucidated. This review aimed to investigate predict...
متن کاملAnterior ethmoidal artery septal flap for the management of septal perforation.
OBJECTIVES To achieve long-term closure of nasal septal perforations and to describe our surgical technique for repairing septal defects. METHODS We describe 11 patients who underwent endoscopic repair of anterior septal perforations with a unilateral septal flap pedicled by the anterior ethmoidal artery. The patients were followed up for a period of 12 to 132 months (median follow-up, 51 mon...
