RESUMO
Objective:Anatomical variation or scar atresia of the drainage channel of the frontal sinus on the affected side, and opening the frontal sinus through the drainage channel of the frontal sinus on the affected side may lead to surgical failure. The purpose of this study is to explore a modified Draf â ¢ operation to complete the drainage of the affected frontal sinus by removing the floor wall and septum of the frontal sinus and connecting the bilateral frontal sinus through the healthy side of the frontal sinus. Methods:Through the anatomical study of 2 skull bone specimens and 2 fresh frozen specimens, the surgical landmark and surgical approach were explored. Four patients with frontal sinus atresia and frontal sinusitis after Drafâ ¡b surgery in Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University were retrospectively analyzed. Descriptive method was used to analyze the data. Results:The bottom wall of bilateral frontal sinus was removed, and the bilateral frontal sinus was enlarged above the nasal septum to form a large common cavity. The uncinate process and ethmoid bubble were retained, and the midline drainage of the affected frontal sinus in the healthy side of the nasal cavity was completed. From August 2022 to April 2023, 4 patients with frontal sinus atresia and frontal sinusitis after Drafâ ¡b surgery for unilateral frontal sinus papilloma in Eye & ENT Hospital of Fudan University were treated with surgery. The headache symptoms disappeared after surgery, and the drainage of frontal sinus was spacious, the mucosa healed well and the drainage was unobstructed under endoscopy. There were no other postoperative complications. Conclusion:Drafâ ¢ approach to unilateral frontal sinus for contralateral drainage can drain the affected frontal sinus adequately. The essence of this operation is to drain the bilateral frontal sinus in the unilateral nasal cavity, and this operation has short path, less trauma, and a broader prospect, which is suitable for promotion.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to determine the relationship between nasal changes and the amount of advancement, impaction, and downward movement of the maxilla after Le Fort I osteotomy. METHODS: The study included 48 patients who underwent Le Fort I surgery and had pre- and postoperative cone-beam computed tomography records. Changes in the nasal septum were evaluated by measuring septal deviation angles and volumes. In addition, nasolabial angle and width of nasal and alar base were examined. Groups were determined according to the movement of point A (the deepest point on the curvature of the maxillary alveolar process), using a threshold of 1.5 mm for vertical movements and 4 mm for sagittal movements. This resulted in the comparison of 6 groups of 8 people each. Results are presented as mean and standard deviation or median and range depending on the data distribution. Significance level was accepted as P < 0.05. RESULT: There were no significant differences for each group on its own septal deviation volume or angle values pre/postoperatively. Groups 3 and 5, which both had at least 1.5 mm of impaction, showed significant changes in both deviation angle and volume between the preoperative and postoperative measurements. Nasolabial angle did not show significant changes between groups. Alar base width and nasal width increase was significantly highest in Group 1, which has more than 4 mm sagittal movement and less than 1.5 mm vertical movement. CONCLUSIONS: Le Fort I osteotomy may lead to undesirable changes in the spatial positioning of the nasal septum. The results of this study suggest that maxillary advancement does not significantly impact septal deviation, whereas maxillary impaction increases the amount of deviation. In addition, nasal width and alar base width tended to increase, and the nasolabial angle tended to decrease slightly, regardless of the direction of movement of the maxilla after orthognathic surgery. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Surgeons should consider increased nasal septal deviation risks when planning impaction of the maxilla. The soft tissue changes in the nose vary according to different directions and amounts of Le Fort I surgery.

BACKGROUND: Cerebrospinal fluid leak after endoscopic skull base surgery remains a significant complication. Several investigators have suggested Hydroset cranioplasty to reduce leak rates. We investigated our early experience with Hydroset and compared the rate of nasal complications and CSF leak rates with case-controlled historic controls. METHODS: We queried a prospective database of patients undergoing first time endoscopic, endonasal resection of suprasellar meningiomas and craniopharyngiomas from 2015 to 2023. We compared cases closed with a gasket seal, Hydroset, and a nasoseptal flap with those closed with only a gasket seal and nasoseptal flap. Demographics, technical considerations and postoperative outcomes (SNOT-22) were compared. RESULTS: Seventy patients met inclusion criteria, twenty patients in the Hydroset group (meningioma n = 12; craniopharyngioma n = 8) and 50 control patients (meningioma n = 25; craniopharyngioma n = 25). CSF diversion was used in fewer Hydroset patients (75%, 15/20) compared with control group (94%, 47/50; p = 0.02). CSF leak was less frequent in the Hydroset than the control group (5% versus 12%, p = 0.38). One Hydroset patient required delayed nasal debridement. SNOT-22 responses demonstrated no significant difference in sinonasal complaints between groups (Hydroset average SNOT-22 score 22.45, control average SNOT-22 score 25.90; p = 0.58). CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate that hydroxyapatite reconstruction leads to improved CSF leak control above that provided by the gasket-seal and nasoseptal flap, without significant associated morbidity as long as the cement is fully covered with vascularized tissue.

OBJECTIVES: To compare and measure post-operative outcomes among various surgical techniques for reducing inferior turbinate hypertrophy (ITH), and to identify the factors associated with the clinical outcomes of turbinoplasty in patients with this condition. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was carried out from January 2021 to December 2022 at the Otorhinolaryngology Department of King Abdulaziz Medical City in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. A total of 301 adult patients with ITH were included and were divided into different groups. Postoperative follow-up assessments were completed after one week, one month, and 6 months to evaluate outcomes and complications associated with each surgical technique; descriptive analysis, cross-tabulation, and exact logistic regression were utilized as data analysis methods. RESULTS: Most patients in both groups experienced partial or complete improvement after surgery, with 92% showing positive outcomes. Common clinical signs included deviated nasal septum deviation and external nasal deformity, while nasal obstruction was most frequently reported as the primary symptom. Post-surgery bleeding occurred in 3.7% of cases; no adhesions were noted. Microdebrider, medial flap, out-fracture, and submucosal diathermy techniques all demonstrated significantly higher improvement rates than others. CONCLUSION: The identified techniques with higher improvement rates offer evidence-based guidance for selecting optimal surgical approaches, while the study's limitations warrant further prospective research to validate these findings. Ultimately, it contributes valuable knowledge to the field of otorhinolaryngology, aiming to enhance patient outcomes and improve the management of ITH worldwide.

BACKGROUND: The septal L-strut extension graft (SLEG) consists of anterior extended spreader graft and caudal septal extension graft. SLEG is used to increase the anterocaudal projection from a low-profile nose by creating the de-novo septum. This retrospective study verified the effectiveness of SLEG in improving the nasal function in East Asians. MATERIALS: Medical records of patients who underwent septorhinoplasty with SLEG were retrospectively reviewed. The clinical features showed under-projected lower two-thirds of the nose with septal deviation, saddle nose, and short nose. We analyzed the post-operative changes in the NOSE score and variables of nasal geometry measured using acoustic rhinometry through long-term follow-up. RESULTS: Patients were divided into two groups, those who underwent SLEG with turbinoplasty (Group A) and SLEG alone (group B). The NOSE scores decreased significantly in groups A and B, and the improvement was statistically more significant in Group A (p < 0.05). Acoustic rhinometry showed an increase in nasal cavity volume (VOL1) on the deviated side in Group A, and an increase in minimal cross-sectional area 1 (MCA1) on the deviated side in Group B (p < 0.05). The non-deviated side did not show significant reduction in MCA1 and VOL1 after SLEG with or without turbinoplasty. Thus, SLEG, by itself, improved airway function in East Asians. CONCLUSIONS: SLEG has proven to be valuable in improving nasal function.

Nasal septal perforation (NSP) is a complex problem in otorhinolaryngology, which leads to impaired nasal breathing and dryness in the nose. This reduces the patient's quality of life and leads to psychological discomfort. The treatment of nasal septum perforation is selected taking into account the clinical manifestations, perforation parameters and general condition of the patient. Currently, a large number of different surgical methods have been described in order to closing the defect of nasal septum. To date, there is no universally accepted method for closing NSP, which stimulates the search and development of new treatment options. OBJECTIVE: Under experimental conditions, to study a new method for closing nasal septum perforation using a collagen scaffold together with adipose stromal vascular fraction containing multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The experiment was carried out on a model of nasal septum perforation in 24 male rabbits divided into four groups, depending on the construct, implanted into the defect zone: the 1st group was the control group - without the introduction of implantation material; the 2nd group - collagen scaffold without adipose stromal vascular fraction; the 3rd group - collagen scaffold with xenogenic adipose stromal vascular fraction; the 4th group - collagen scaffold with allogeneic adipose stromal vascular fraction with further dynamic evaluation of endoscopic control on day 14, after 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months. At month 6, the animals were removed from the experiment, followed by morphological examination in color with hematoxylin and eosin, as well as safranin and methyl green. RESULTS: As a result of the experiment using adipose stromal vascular fraction of allogeneic and xenogenic origin, closing of perforation of the nasal septum of a rabbit for 3 months of dynamic endoscopic control, as well as according to morphological research, was demonstrated. CONCLUSION: Our study showed that the use of adipose stromal vascular fraction containing not only endothelial cells and pericytes, but also multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells in combination with a collagen scaffold closes the perforation of the nasal septum in a rabbit, without increasing the risk of violations of habitual vital activity.

BACKGROUND The columella has many fundamental functions, such as nasal breathing and support of the nasal tip, in addition to the aesthetic role it plays. The columella is one of the most difficult nasal subunits, both from the point of view of disease control and from that of reconstruction. Lesions involving the columella can be difficult to control, and malignancies can spread to the septum, subcutaneous tissues of the lip, and floor of the nasal cavities. Many columella reconstruction methods after resection have been proposed (local nasal flaps, skin grafts, regional flaps, free flaps), depending on the size of the defect, patient's features, surgeon's experience, and patient's aesthetic wishes. CASE REPORT We present a case of an 82-year-old woman with various comorbidities who had squamous cell carcinoma (G2) originating from the skin of the right side of the columella. The lesion infiltrated the cartilage, arriving to the skin of the columella on the left side and extending to the mucosa of the nasal septum bilaterally. Reconstruction was conducted using a bilateral nasolabial flap, with good functional and aesthetic result. Surgical revision for the autonomization of pedicled flaps was not necessary, nor desired by the patient. CONCLUSIONS The bilateral nasolabial flap is an effective and safe solution for reconstructing the columella, with good support of the tip even without cartilaginous graft. This technique is especially feasible in elderly patients and those with concomitant pathologies, who benefit from rapid healing of the wound.

BACKGROUND: Nasal septum osteotomy is used for separating the nasal septum and maxilla during a Le Fort I osteotomy. If this osteotomy is applied too high or is tilted into the nasal cavity, the sphenoid sinus and various adjacent vital structures may be damaged, and serious bleeding, neurological complications, blindness or even death may occur. The aim of this study is to determine the safety margin of the nasal septum osteotomy for sphenoid sinus during the Le Fort I surgery in cleft lip and palate (CLP) patients. METHODS: Twenty cleft lip and palate (the CLP group) and 20 healthy individuals (the control group) were included in this study. Three values (two lines and an angle) were measured by cone beam computed tomography (CBCT). The first line is the line passing through the junction of the spina nasalis anterior point and the lower point of the perpendicular lamina of the palatine bone. The undersired line is the line passing through the junction of the spina nasalis anterior point and the lower anterior border of the base of the sphenoid sinus. The osteotomy angle is the angle between these two lines. RESULTS: In the control group; a surgical line of 44.11-61.14 mm (mean 51.91 ± 4.32), an undesired line of 52.48-69.58 mm (mean 59.14 ± 5.08) and an angle of 18.22-27.270 (mean 22.66 ± 2.55) were found, while in the CLP group, a surgical line of 34.53-51.16 mm (mean 43.38 ± 4.79), an undesired line of 46.86-61.35 mm (mean 55.02 ± 3.24) and an angle of 17.60-28.810 (mean 22.60 ± 2.81) were found. CONCLUSIONS: Although the angle to the sphenoid sinus was not significantly affected by CLP, careful planning and consideration of these anatomical differences are crucial to prevent complications and ensure the safety of Le Fort I surgery in CLP patients. Further research with larger sample sizes and subgroup analysis of unilateral and bilateral CLP cases is needed to improve our understanding of these anatomical variations and improve surgical approaches to individuals with CLP undergoing orthognathic procedures.

Deviations of the septal wall are widespread anatomic anomalies of the human nose; they vary significantly in shape and location, and often cause the obstruction of the nasal airways. When severe, septal deviations need to be surgically corrected by ear-nose-throat (ENT) specialists. Septoplasty, however, has a low success rate, owing to the lack of suitable standardized clinical tools for assessing type and severity of obstructions, and for surgery planning. Moreover, the restoration of a perfectly straight septal wall is often impossible and possibly unnecessary. This paper introduces a procedure, based on advanced patient-specific Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations, to support ENT surgeons in septoplasty planning. The method hinges upon the theory of adjoint-based optimization, and minimizes a cost function that indirectly accounts for viscous losses. A sensitivity map is computed on the mucosal wall to provide the surgeon with a simple quantification of how much tissue removal at each location would contribute to easing the obstruction. The optimization procedure is applied to three representative nasal anatomies, reconstructed from CT scans of patients affected by complex septal deviations. The computed sensitivity consistently identifies all the anomalies correctly. Virtual surgery, i.e. morphing of the anatomies according to the computed sensitivity, confirms that the characteristics of the nasal airflow improve significantly after small anatomy changes derived from adjoint-based optimization.

Objective: To compare subdorsal strip excisions in patients undergoing dorsal preservation (DP) rhinoplasty using patient-related outcome measures (PROMS). Methods: Patients were treated from 2020 to 2022 using the modified subdorsal strip method (MSSM) or Z flap approach. A two-sample t-test determined whether there was a difference in functional and aesthetic scores using the NOSE, Sinonasal Outcome Test (SNOT-22), SCHNOS, and ESS scales. Results: Seventy-one primary rhinoplasty patients met inclusion criteria at 12 months with an average age of 23 years (62 female, 9 male), with 35 (49%) undergoing the MSSM technique, while 36 (51%) receiving the Z flap. PROMS at 1, 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively were compared. The average preoperative and postoperative NOSE score was 9.36 and -4.4 (standard deviation [SD] 3.1, p < 0.001). The average preoperative SNOT-22 score was 23.9 and -16.4 (SD 10.2, p < 0.001). ESS scores was average was 6.2 and -1.6 (SD 3.2, p = 0.01). The average SCHNOS total, functional, and cosmetic scores were 27.6 (6-47), 8.2 (0-20) and 18.7 (0-37), respectively, and -5.7 (SD 8.2, p < 0.001), -5.73 (SD 6.24, p < 0.001), -18.1 (SD 9.7, p < 0.001). No significant complications were found and no difference in PROMs among groups. Conclusion: There was no difference in septal strip techniques as evaluated by PROMS.

The transnasal endoscopic approach is increasingly used for resection of tumors that are located inferiorly and medially within the orbit. However, this usually requires multiple-handed manipulations, which demand a second corridor for an assistant. Here, we introduce a simple transseptal corridor from the contra-nare, to facilitate assistant instrument maneuverability. This simple, minimally invasive skill greatly improves operation efficiency and deserves greater attention in endoscopic orbital surgery.

Condylar resorption is an aggressive and disability form of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) degenerative disease, usually non-respondent to conservative or minimally invasive therapies and often leading to surgical intervention and prostheses implantation. This condition is also one of the most dreaded postoperative complications of orthognathic surgery, with severe cartilage erosion and loss of subchondral bone volume and mineral density, associated with a painful or not inflammatory processes. Because regenerative medicine has emerged as an alternative for orthopedic cases with advanced degenerative joint disease, we conducted a phase I/IIa clinical trial (U1111-1194-6997) to evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous nasal septal chondroprogenitor cells. Ten participants underwent biopsy of the nasal septum cartilage during their orthognathic surgery. The harvested cells were cultured in vitro and analyzed for viability, presence of phenotype markers for mesenchymal stem and/or chondroprogenitor cells, and the potential to differentiate into chondrocytes, adipocytes, and osteoblasts. After the intra-articular injection of the cell therapy, clinical follow-up was performed using the Diagnostic Criteria for Temporomandibular Disorders (DC/TMD) and computed tomography (CT) images. No serious adverse events related to the cell therapy injection were observed during the 12-month follow-up period. It was found that autologous chondroprogenitors reduced arthralgia, promoted stabilization of mandibular function and condylar volume, and regeneration of condylar tissues. This study demonstrates that chondroprogenitor cells from the nasal septum may be a promise strategy for the treatment of temporomandibular degenerative joint disease that do not respond to other conservative therapies.

BACKGROUND: Septorhinoplasty is one the most common class of procedures performed worldwide, and opioids are frequently prescribed for post-operative pain [1]. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to examine the rate of post-operative opioid prescription refills following septorhinoplasty. METHODS: This study was a case-control study of patients who underwent septoplasty and other secondary concomitant procedures. RESULTS: Of the 249 patients included in this study, the majority of patients (94.8%) were prescribed 12 tablets of hydrocodone-acetaminophen 5 mg - 325 mg and only 31 patients (13.3%) received refills. The presence of osteotomies and history of prior opioid use were associated with refills. Nasal valve repair type, open versus closed approach, and presence of autologous auricular cartilage graft harvest were not. DISCUSSION: Our study highlights factors that surgeons should consider when prescribing opioids after septorhinoplasty. Twelve tablets of an opioid are likely sufficient for the majority of patients, but if osteotomies are performed or the patient has a history of prior opioid use, more may be indicated to avoid the need for refills. Additional narcotics are not necessary for an open approach or for patients in which auricular cartilage is needed.

PURPOSE: Septoplasty and rhinoplasty are common otolaryngological procedures, often combined as septorhinoplasty (SRP), offering aesthetic and functional benefits. These surgeries are believed to potentially risk postoperative infections due to natural bacterial flora in the nares. This study evaluates the effectiveness of prophylactic antibiotics in reducing post-surgical infection complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic review was conducted using PubMed, Cochrane, and Web of Science, adhering to PRISMA guidelines, focusing on antibiotic use in septoplasty, rhinoplasty, and SRP. The study included randomized control trials, single/double-blind studies, retrospective chart reviews, and prospective cohort studies, excluding pediatric, non-human research, or studies with inaccessible data. Postoperative infection rates were analyzed utilizing R software as a form of Statistic. RESULTS: From 697 articles, 15 studies were chosen for meta-analysis, involving 2225 patients, with 1274 receiving prophylactic antibiotics and 951 as controls. The meta-analysis indicated an odds ratio of 0.65 (95 % CI: [0.23, 1.89]), showing no significant protective effect of prophylactic antibiotics. DISCUSSION: The study found no significant infection rate reduction with prophylactic antibiotic use. Notable were inconsistencies in study designs, antibiotic administration timing, and varied surgical practices. Antibiotic use risks were considered. Study limitations include potential biases and the retrospective nature of many studies. CONCLUSIONS: This review and meta-analysis found no substantial evidence supporting prophylactic antibiotics' effectiveness in reducing postoperative infection rates in septoplasty, rhinoplasty, and SRP, indicating a need to reevaluate practices and develop evidence-based guidelines. Future research should focus on comprehensive, randomized control studies, covering both preoperative and postoperative stages.
