RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the effectiveness of comprehensive rhinoplasty with autogenous costal cartilage grafting and prosthesis augmentation rhinoplasty in the treatment of secondary nasal deformity with saddle nasal deformity after cleft lip surgery.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 96 patients with secondary nasal deformity with saddle nasal deformity after cleft lip surgery between September 2008 and January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 17 males and 79 females with an average age of 25.6 years (range, 17-38 years). Autogenous costal cartilage grafts were used to construct stable nasal tip framework and enhance the strength of alar cartilage. Nasal dorsum prostheses (39 cases of bulge, 45 cases of silicone prosthesis) or autogenous costal cartilage (12 cases) were used for comprehensive rhinoplasty. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to evaluate the postoperative satisfaction subjectively, and nasal alar height symmetry index, nasal alar width symmetry index, nasal dorsum central axis deviation angle, and nasal columella deviation angle were calculated to evaluate objectively before and after operation.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed up 6 months to 8 years, with an average of 13.4 months. Nasal septal hematoma occurred in 3 patients after operation, which was improved after local aspiration and nasal pressure packing. Two cases had mild deformation of the rib cartilage graft of the nasal dorsum, one of which had no obvious deviation of the nasal dorsum and was not given special treatment, and one case underwent the cartilage graft of the nasal dorsum removed and replaced with silicone prosthesis. The incisions of the other patients healed by first intention, and there was no complication such as postoperative infection and prosthesis displacement. The nasal alar height symmetry index, nasal alar width symmetry index, nasal dorsum central axis deviation angle, and nasal columella deviation angle significantly improved after operation when compared with preoperative ones ( P<0.05). Postoperative subjective satisfaction evaluation reached the level of basic satisfaction or above, and most of them were very satisfied.@*CONCLUSION@#Comprehensive rhinoplasty using autologous rib cartilage grafting to construct a stable nasal tip support, combined with dorsal nasal prosthesis or autologous cartilage implantation, can achieve good effectiveness on secondary nasal deformity with saddle nasal deformity after cleft lip surgery.

SUMMARY: The purpose of this study was to inform the anatomical types of the nasal septum of which including variations by dissection and to provide guidelines for clinical adaptation. For this purpose dissections were performed on 70 nasal septums of formalin fixed Korean adult cadavers (20 males, 11 females, and 39 of unknown sex) with an age at death of 13-105 years. The septal deviation was checked before midsagittal section the nasal cavity with the aid of a laryngoscope. The mucosa on the nasal septum was then removed to observe the morphology of the nasal septum. The shape of each component of the nasal septum was identified, and photographs were taken from a midsagittal plane. This study has discovered various anatomical types of the nasal septum and its variations. The correlations between septal types according to their proportions were also analyzed. The results reported herein provide detailed anatomical knowledge that can be used as a valuable reference for rhinoplasty procedures.

Presentamos el caso clínico de una mujer de 58 años que consulta por episodios de epis-taxis autolimitadas por fosa nasal derecha asociados a hipersensibilidad al manipular dicha fosa nasal. A la exploración se evidenció en el septum nasal una lesión mucosa nodular, de consistencia dura y aspecto violáceo. Se llevó a cabo exéresis de la misma por vía endonasal, con resultado histopatológico de tumor glómico (TG) del septum nasal. El TG es una neoplasia benigna perivascular, derivada de las células musculares lisas presentes en el cuerpo glómico; estructura con función termorreguladora, formada por un shunt entre arteriolas y vénulas, sin presencia de red capilar. Los cuerpos glómicos están presentes, mayoritariamente, en extremidades (lecho ungueal). Los tumores glómicos son, verdaderamente, excepcionales en el área ORL, existiendo sólo una treintena de casos publicados hasta la fecha a nivel nasosinusal. La mayoría de casos se presentan entre la 5ᵃ y 6ᵃ década de la vida y más, frecuentemente, en mujeres. Plantea diagnóstico diferencial, fundamentalmente, con dos entidades: el paraganglioma (con el que no debe ser confundido desde el punto de vista terminológico ni histológico), y con el tumor fibroso solitario (antiguo hemangiopericitoma). El comportamiento es benigno y el tratamiento es la cirugía
We present the clinical case of a 58-year-old woman who consulted for episodes of self-limited epistaxis in the right nostril associated with hypersensitivity to manipulation of this nostril. Examination revealed a nodular mucosal lesion in the nasal septum, with a hard consistency and purplish appearance. The lesion was excised endonasally, with histopatho-logical result of a glomus tumor (GT) of the nasal septum. The GT is a benign perivascular neoplasm, derived from smooth muscle cells present in the glomus body; structure with thermoregulatory function, formed by a shunt between arterioles and venules, without the presence of capillary network. Glomus bodies are mostly present in the extremities (nail bed). Glomus tumors are truly exceptional in the ENT area, with only about thirty cases published to date at the nasosinusal level. Most cases occur between the 5th and 6th decade of life and more frequently in women. It raises differential diagnosis fundamentally with two entities: paraganglioma (with which it should not be confused from the terminological or histological point of view) and with solitary fibrous tumor (former hemangiopericytoma). The behavior is benign and the treatment is surgery.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the influence of buried thread nasal augmentation on dorsal soft tissue of nose and revision rhinoplasty.@*METHODS@#A clinical data of 29 patients requesting revision rhinoplasty after buried thread nasal augmentation, who were admitted between July 2017 and July 2019 and met the selection criteria, was retrospectively analyzed. All patients were female with an average age of 26.8 years (range, 18-43 years). The patiens were admitted to the hospital at 3-48 months after buried thread nasal augmentation (median, 15 months). Among them, there were 18 cases of insufficient nasal tip projection, 22 cases of insufficient nasal root projection, 7 cases of threads ectasia, 5 cases of threads exposure, 3 cases of infection, and 10 cases with two or more conditions. There were 9 cases of combined short nose deformity, 1 case of spherical hypertrophy of the nasal tip, 3 cases of deviation of the nasal columella, 3 cases of excessive width of the nasal base, and 1 case of nasal hump. Three infected patients only underwent threads removal and debridement. The rest patients underwent revision rhinoplasty, and the dorsum of the nose was made with polytetrafluoroethylene expansion; the tip of the nose was reshaped by taking autologous rib cartilage and alar cartilage in 16 cases, and by taking autologous septal cartilage and alar cartilage in another 10 cases. The threads and surrounding tissue specimens removed during operation were subjected to histologic observation. Nasal length and nasal tip projection were measured after revision rhinoplasty and the ratio was calculated to evaluate the nasal morphology; patient satisfaction was evaluated using the Likert 5-grade scale.@*RESULTS@#Patients were followed up 12-48 months (mean, 18 months). Inflammation was controlled in 3 patients with infections caused by buried thread nasal augmentation. The remaining 26 patients had satisfactory results immediately after revision rhinoplasty. Before revision rhinoplasty and at 7 days and 6 months after revision rhinoplasty, the nasal length was (4.11±0.34), (4.36±0.25), and (4.33±0.22) cm, respectively; the nasal tip projection was (2.34±0.25), (2.81±0.18), and (2.76±0.15) cm, respectively; and the nasal tip projection/nasal length ratio was 0.57±0.08, 0.65±0.05, and 0.64±0.04, respectively. There were significant differences in the nasal length and the nasal tip projection between time points ( P<0.05). There was a significant difference in the nasal tip projection/nasal length ratio between pre- and post-operation ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between 7 days and 6 months after operation ( P>0.05). The Likert score for satisfaction ranged from 1.5 to 5.0 (mean, 4.05). During follow-up period of 26 patients, no nasal prosthesis was exposed, and the shape of the nose was stable, and the nasal skin of 5 patients with exposed threads could be seen with different degrees of scarring; there was no infection, cartilage resorption, and no cartilage deformation, displacement, or exposure. Histological observation showed that absorbable threads were not only absorbed after implantation, but also with the prolongation of time, the inflammatory changes in the surrounding tissues caused by decomposition and absorption of the threads showed a gradual aggravation of the first, the heaviest inflammatory reaction in 6 to 12 months, and then gradually reduce the trend.@*CONCLUSION@#After implantation of the absorbable thread into the subcutaneous tissue of the nasal dorsum, the nature of the thread is different from the body's own tissue, which will affect the soft tissue compliance of the nasal dorsum. The degradation and absorption of the thread will stimulate the infiltration of inflammatory cells and the proliferation of fibroblasts in the surrounding tissue and then form scar tissue, which will affect the design and effect of revision rhinoplasty.

Objective@#To present a rare case of nasal tip schwannoma and describe its resection and reconstruction using combined cartilage grafts.@*Methods@#Design: Case Report Setting: Tertiary Government Training Hospital Patient: One@*Results@#A 13-year-old boy presented with a progressively enlarging nasal tip and severe left nasal obstruction causing breathing difficulties and psychosocial distress. There was a bulging septal mass obstructing 90% of the left nasal cavity. Septal incision biopsy revealed schwannoma and definitive surgery via open rhinoplasty approach was done. The non-encapsulated schwannoma extended from the subcutaneous nasal tip to the left septal mucosa. There was no evidence of skin or cartilage invasion, but prolonged pressure from the expansile schwannoma caused severe lower lateral cartilage and anterior septal atrophy leading to a collapsed and expanded nasal tip after resection. To correct this, a total reconstruction of the anterior tip complex was done using combined ear cartilage seagull wing graft, shield graft and septal extension graft. @*Conclusion@#Nasal tip and septal schwannoma is rare and can cause significant nasal obstruction and deformity. Complete excision is vital to avoid recurrence. Total reconstruction of the lower lateral cartilages using autologous septal and ear cartilage grafts may be a safe and effective technique that yields acceptable aesthetic results.

Contexte et objectif. Les variétés histologiques de tumeurs du septum nasal sont peu documentées dans les pays d'Afrique. La présenté étude avait pour objectif de décrire les variétés histologiques de tumeurs septales bénignes. Méthodes. C'était une analyse rétrospective de dossiers des patients admis pour tumeurs septales bénignes, entre janvier 1998 et aout 2021 ; à l'hôpital Dr Dorban en Algérie. Les variables d'intérêt englobaient les données cliniques et histopathologiques. Résultats. En 23 ans, seulement trente dossiers de tumeurs bénignes du septum nasal ont été colligés. Leur âge moyen était de 36,2 ans avec les extrêmes entre 13 et 70 ans avec une prédominance du sexe féminin (63,3 %). Les tumeurs vasculaires étaient prépondérantes (83,3 %) en particulier les hémangiomes capillaires (92 %) suivies des variétés épithéliales (13,3%) et un seul adénome pléomorphe septal. L'évolution clinique était émaillée par 3 récidives pour les hémangiomes, et absence de récidive pour l'adénome pléomorphe après 120 mois de recul. Trois autres cas étaient perdus. Conclusion: Les tumeurs bénignes du septum nasal sont rares et diversifiées sur le plan histologique. A coté des formes classiques et communes (hémangiomes, papillomes, adénomes), il existe des variétés rares et qui nécessitent une étude spécifique et une expertise dédiée.

Pólipo coanal es el término utilizado para una masa de tejido blando, solitaria y benigna que se extiende hacia la unión de la cavidad nasal y la nasofaringe; es decir, la coana. Los pólipos coanales nasales se presentan típicamente en tres formas diferentes: pólipos antrocoanales, esfenocoanales y etmoidocoanales. Sitios atípicos de origen han sido reportados en la literatura; por ejemplo, el tabique nasal y el cornete inferior. El conocimiento de los médicos sobre la existencia de pólipos coanales de sitios inusuales puede ayudar en el diagnóstico de los mismos, considerando crucial descartar previamente otros potenciales diagnósticos para estos casos de presentación atípica. A continuación reportamos el caso de un pólipo inflamatorio de inserción en techo de fosa nasal en un paciente de 65 años diagnosticado y tratado en nuestro servicio, cuyo caso es el primero reportado en la literatura.
Coanal polyp is the term used for a solitary, benign soft tissue mass extending into the junction of the nasal cavity and nasopharynx, i.e., the choana. Nasal coanal polyps typically present in three different forms: antrochoanal, sphenocoanal, and ethmoidocoanal polyps. Atypical sites of origin have been reported in the literature; these include the nasal septum and inferior turbinate. Physicians' awareness of the existence of coanal polyps from unusual sites may help in the diagnosis of coanal polyps considering it crucial to previously rule out other potential diagnoses for these cases of atypical presentation. Here we report the case of an inflammatory polyp of insertion in the roof of the nostril in a 65-year-old patient diagnosed and treated in our department, which is the first case reported in the literature.

Introducción: La desviación de la punta nasal suele producir alteración estética y funcional nasal. Generalmente, asocia alteraciones morfológicas de los cartílagos alares, además de dismorfia del cartílago septal. Objetivo: Presentar una técnica quirúrgica alternativa para el tratamiento de la laterorrinia en tercio inferior nasal y sus resultados. Material y Método: Se trataron 27 pacientes con una laterorrinia en punta nasal con la técnica del septum bisagra, incluyendo la colocación de uno o dos injertos de expansión. Describimos el protocolo de anamnesis y exploración que seguimos en estos pacientes y la descripción detallada de la técnica quirúrgica. Resultados: En 19 pacientes se utilizó un injerto de expansión unilateral para completar la técnica y en ocho de forma bilateral. Se obtuvo una puntuación media en la escala visual analógica (EVA) de ventilación de 8,3, con una mejoría de seis puntos, y en la EVA de aspecto estético de 8,1, mejorando en 4,6 puntos. Conclusión: la utilización de la técnica del septum bisagra es beneficiosa para el tratamiento de la desviación de la punta nasal, tanto a nivel funcional como estético. Presenta ciertas diferencias frente a otras técnicas descritas. La indicación se debe adecuar a cada paciente de manera individualizada.
Introduction: Deviation of nasal tip usually produces aesthetic disturbance and nasal ventilation decrease. It is usually associated with alar cartilages morphologic disturbances and dysmorphia of the septal cartilage. Aim: To present an alternative surgical technique for treating laterorrhinia in the nasal inferior third and its outcomes. Material and Method: 27 patients with nasal tip laterorrhinia were treated with the hinge septum technique, including the placement of one or two spreader grafts. We describe the anamnesis and exploration protocol that we carried out in these patients and a detailed description of the surgical procedure. Results: Unilateral spreader graft was used in 19 patients to complete the technique, and bilateral spreader graft was used in eight. The average score in visual analogue scale (VAS) related to nasal flow was 8.3, which means an improvement of six points, and in VAS related to aesthetic appearance the score was 8.1, improving 4.6 points. Conclusion: The use of the hinge septum technique is useful to treat the deviation of the nasal tip in a functional and aesthetic way. There are several differences compared to other described techniques. The indication has to be suitable for each patient individually.

Tabique NasalRESUMEN
Resumen Los schwannomas son neoplasias derivadas de las células de Schwann de la cubierta de los nervios periféricos. Su desarrollo en la región nasosinusal es poco frecuente, especialmente a nivel septal. Su diagnóstico diferencial es variado y debe establecerse con otras causas más habituales de masa nasal unilateral. Su tratamiento es quirúrgico. Describimos el caso de un varón de 47 años con una masa nasal derecha intervenida mediante cirugía endoscópica nasosinusal y con diagnóstico anatomopatológico de schwannoma septal.
Abstract Schwannomas are tumors that proceed from Schwann cells in the cover of peripheral nerves. It is uncommon in the sinonasal area, especially in the nasal septum. The differential diagnosis is extensive and requires contemplating other more frequent causes of unilateral nasal mass. The current treatment of septal schwannoma is surgical. We report a 47-year-old male with a right nasal mass operated by endoscopic sinonasal surgery with an anatomopathological diagnosis of a nasal septal schwannoma.

Objetivo: Describir los resultados estéticos y funcionales en pacientes sometidos a rinoplastias de preservación dorsal. Material y Método: Se realiza un estudio de intervención no aleatorio "antes-después", donde se evaluaron las variables estética y funcional previo a la cirugía y luego a los seis meses. La variable estética se evaluó mediante el cuestionario de Utrecht (CU), escala visual análoga de apariencia nasal (EVA) y set de fotos clínicas. La variable funcional mediante el cuestionario de NOSE (Nasal Obstruction Symptoms Evaluation). Resultados: Un total de 15 pacientes fueron sometidos a rinoplastia de preservación dorsal. No hubo complicaciones tanto intra como posoperatorias. Ningún paciente intervenido presentó irregularidades dorsales, asimetrías, ni deformidades en "V" invertidas. Se observó una mejoría estadísticamente significativa (p < 0,01) en los resultados del CU, EVA y NOSE. Conclusión: La rinoplastia de preservación dorsal ofrece como resultado una nariz funcional, con líneas dorsales posoperatorias naturales. Esta técnica no presenta estigmas quirúrgicos, por lo que no es necesario la utilización de injertos para reparación del dorso nasal. Es rápida y fácil de realizar por cualquier cirujano especialista en rinoplastias.
Abstract Introduction: Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty is an innovative technique in primary reduction rhinoplasty, achieving adequate nasal ventilation and natural aesthetic results. Aim: To describe the aesthetic and functional results in patients undergoing dorsal preservation rhinoplasties. Material and Method: A non-randomized "before-after" intervention study was carried out, where the aesthetic and functional variables were evaluated before surgery and then at six months. The aesthetic variable was evaluated using the Utrecht questionnaire (CU), the visual analog scale of nasal appearance (VAS), and a set of clinical photos. The functional variable using the Nasal Obstruction Symptoms Evaluation (NOSE) questionnaire. Results: A total of 15 patients underwent dorsal preservation rhinoplasty. There were no intraoperative and postoperative complications. No patient who underwent surgery presented dorsal irregularities, asymmetries, or inverted "V" deformities. A statistically significant improvement (p < 0.01) was observed in the UC, VAS, and NOSE results. Conclusion: Dorsal preservation rhinoplasty results in a functional nose, with natural postoperative dorsal lines. This technique does not present surgical stigmata, so it is not necessary to use grafts to repair the nasal dorsum. It is quick and easy to perform by any rhinoplasty surgeon.

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects almost 30% of the adult population. OBJECTIVE: To describe and compare the evolution of symptoms in patients diagnosed with AR and septal deviation prior to and following septoplasty (STP). DESIGN AND SETTING: Quasi-experimental study developed in A Coruña University Hospital. METHODS: Patients aged 18-65 years who had been diagnosed with AR and septal deviation were recruited. Obstruction airflow was evaluated before and after surgery, by means of anterior rhinomanometry (RNM). Severity symptoms and quality of life were assessed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) and the ESPRINT questionnaire, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 50 subjects underwent STP and 42 were included in this study. Their mean age at the time of surgery was 34.16 ± 9.74 years (range 18-64). Significant reductions in mean VAS and ESPRINT were observed after surgery (P < 0.01). These outcomes were considered to represent an overall improvement in quality of life. The RNM results also improved significantly, from mean values of 478.07 ± 165.4 cm3/s before STP to 826.4 ± 175.5 cm3/s afterwards (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: The negative correlations of VAS and ESPRINT with RNM, from before and to after STP, demonstrate the efficacy of scales and questionnaires as objective methods for determining obstruction in the absence of rhinomanometry. Patients with allergic rhinitis and septal deviation showed improvements in obstruction severity and medication use after STP.

Objective: To explore the methods for the accurate resection of malignant tumors of the external nose, and the accurate evaluation and repair of tissue defects. Methods: We collected 48 cases with nasal malignant tumors treated in 980 Hospital, Joint Support Force of the People's Liberation Army from January 2010 to June 2020, including 28 males and 20 females, aged 36-86 years. The pathological types of tumors included basal cell carcinomas (n=29), squamous cell carcinomas (n=11), trichilemmal carcinomas(n=6), denoid cystic carcinoma (n=1) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n=1). Tumor resection was mainly based on the traditional extended resection determined by the safety margin, and Mohs surgery was used to minimize the scope of resection, for the margin that significantly affected the repairing results, such as the lesion adjacent to the nasal alar margin, nasal columella or deep easy-penetrating margin. All cases obtained tumor resection and primary/secondary defect reconstruction. Results: According to the pathological type and tumor size, the safe resection margin was mainly 4-10 mm, and Mohs surgery was used in 24 cases. Limited-size defects in 38 cases were repaired with double-leaf flaps, kite flaps, nasal dorsum brow flaps, nasolabial flaps or free tissues. Among 10 cases with compound defects, 8 cases were repaired with frontal flaps, including 4 cases with single frontal flaps, 2 cases with additional titanium mesh stent reconstruction and 2 cases with over and out frontal flaps. During follow-up of 1 to 10 years, all the flaps survived without flap necrosis, and the postoperative nasal contour and ventilation were satisfactory. One patient had tumor recurrence 18 months after operation, 2 patients died of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and other patients survived without tumors. Conclusions: Mohs surgery can basically meet the requirements for precise resection of external nasal malignant tumors. Individualized application of adjacent tissue flaps and various frontal flaps is a reasonable choice to achieve the satisfactory outcome of external nasal repair and to take into account the complexity of operation.

At present, nasal abnormalities is often classified from different perspectives, such as the alar-columella relationship, nasal base width, and the condition of alar hyperplasia. However, due to the impact of race and region, different people may be applied to different classification methods, resulting in different clinical diagnosis and treatments. So far, there is no unified standard for alar deformity classification to guide clinical treatment. In alar-columella relationship, the retracted ala and the hanging columella, hanging ala and retracted columella are easily confused. According to the classification of nasal base width, it is easy to confuse the alar flare with wide alar base. Therefore, the accurate preoperative evaluation of the nasal ala and the selection of appropriate clinical treatments for different abnormalities are beneficial for surgeons to achieve perfect rhinoplasty results.

Abstract Introduction: Endoscopic access to the sellar region by videoendoscopy shows a low rate of surgical complications, with findings that indicate risk factors for reducing morbidities during and after the postoperative period. Objective: To evaluate, over a nine-year period, the acquisition of skills by the anterior skull base surgical team, according to the time of elimination of nasal crusts and/or the presence of morbidities in the postoperative follow-up of individuals treated in a tertiary public hospital. Methods: After confirming the diagnosis of skull base pathologies, the individuals in this study underwent endoscopic surgery according to the rostrocaudal or coronal axis. For the skull base reconstruction, the nasoseptal flap (associated or not with fascia lata with thigh fat) or free graft was used; clinical follow-up of individuals occurred for a minimum period of 12 months. To assess the impact of the surgical approach on patient clinical evolution, qualitative data related to smoking, post-nasal discharge, nasal flow, smell, taste, clinical symptoms of headache, cranial paresthesia, comorbidities and postoperative morbidities were obtained. Results: The most frequent diagnosis was pituitary macroadenoma (84.14%). The mean absence of crusts in this cohort was 124.45 days (confidence interval 95% = 119.50-129.39). There was a low cerebrospinal fluid fistula rate (3%). Reconstruction with the nasoseptal flap with a fat graft was an independent variable that recorded the highest mean time for the elimination of nasal crusts (=145 days, confidence interval 95% = 127.32-162.68). Allergic rhinitis and smoking were shown to be the most important and independent variables that increased the mean time to eliminate nasal crusts. Conclusion: The mean time to eliminate nasal crusts did not change over the years during which the procedures were performed, demonstrating the adequate training of the surgical team. Debridement and nasal irrigation with saline solutions should be performed more frequently and effectively in patients with allergic rhinitis, smokers and those who received the nasoseptal flap and fascia lata graft with autologous fat.

Objetivo: Avaliar fatores morbidades no seguimento pós-operatório de indivíduos atendidos em um hospital público terciário. Método: Depois de confirmado o diagnóstico de doenças da base do crânio, os indivíduos deste estudo foram submetidos a cirurgia endoscópica conforme o eixo rostrocaudal ou coronal. Para a reconstrução da base do crânio usava-se o retalho nasoseptal (associado ou não à fáscia lata com gordura de coxa) ou enxerto livre; o seguimento clínico dos indivíduos ocorreu por um período mínimo de 12 meses. Para avaliar o impacto da abordagem cirúrgica na evolução clínica dos pacientes foram obtidos os dados qualitativos relativos ao tabagismo, descarga pós-nasal, fluxo nasal, olfato, paladar, sintomas clínicos de dor de cabeça, parestesia craniana, comorbidades e morbidades pós-operatórias. Resultados: O diagnóstico mais frequente foi o macroadenoma hipofisário (84,14%). A média da ausência de crostas nesta coorte foi de 124,45 dias (intervalo de confiança [95% CI] 119,50-129,39). Baixo índice de fístula liquórica (3%). A reconstrução com o retalho nasoseptal com enxerto de gordura apresentou-se com variável independente que necessitou de maior tempo médio para a eliminação de crostas nasais (=145 dias, 95% CI 127,32-162,68). A rinite alérgica e o tabagismo se demonstraram como as variáveis mais importantes e independentes para aumentar o tempo médio de eliminação de crostas nasais. Conclusão: O tempo médio de eliminação de crostas nasais não se alterou ao longo dos anos em que os procedimentos foram feitos. Deve-se fazer com maior frequência e eficácia o debridamento e as irrigações nasais com soluções salinas nos pacientes com rinite alérgica, tabagistas e os que usaram o retalho nasoseptal e enxerto de fáscia lata com gordura autóloga.

Resumo Introdução: O enxerto de extensão caudal é geralmente um enxerto de cartilagem que se sobrepõe à margem caudal do septo nasal. Uma combinação do enxerto de extensão caudal e a técnica de tongue-in-groove é usada para estabilizar a base nasal, definir a projeção da ponta e refinar a relação alar-columelar. Objetivo: Apresentar algumas novas modificações na colocação dos enxertos de extensão caudal na rinoplastia. Método: Revisão retrospectiva de um banco de dados prospectivamente coletado de 965 pacientes que se submeteram a rinosseptoplastia de junho de 2011 a julho de 2015. Desses, 457 pacientes necessitaram de enxerto de extensão caudal e foram incluídos no estudo. O seguimento mínimo foi de 13,2 meses, com tempo médio de seguimento de 17,4 meses. Resultados: Na maioria dos casos, a comparação das fotografias antes e após a cirurgia foi satisfatória e apresentou melhora do contorno. Pequenas deformidades foram detectadas em 41 pacientes e 11 pacientes necessitaram de cirurgia de revisão. Conclusão: Com essas modificações, o cirurgião pode usar o enxerto de extensão caudal mesmo em desvios angulares do septo caudal. Vários métodos têm sido propostos para correção do desvio septo-caudal.

Abstract Introduction: Mechanical obstruction is the most common form of nasal obstruction. Among the types of mechanical obstructions, septum deviation and inferior turbinate hypertrophy are the most prevalent. Objective: This study evaluated the early clinical outcomes of inferior turbinate radiofrequency and inferior turbinate lateralization combined with septoplasty in the treatment of nasal obstruction symptoms. Methods: The research retrospectively evaluated data from 33 patients (24 male, nine female) undergoing septoplasty and inferior turbinate radiofrequency (RF group) and 32 patients (24 male, eight female) treated with septoplasty and inferior turbinate lateralization (LAT group), who were admitted, with complaints of nasal obstruction, to the University of Health Sciences, Department of Otorhinolaryngology, between January 1, 2017 and January 1, 2018. The patients' preoperative and 6-month postoperative symptoms were evaluated via the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation, the NOSE scale. Results: The mean preoperative NOSE scores were 10.3 ± 4.2 in the RF group and 10.9 ± 4.9 in the LAT group, and the mean six-month postoperative scores were 1.09 ± 1.3 in the RF group and 1.2 ± 1.3 in the LAT group. There was no significant difference in NOSE scores between the two groups (p > 0.05). Conclusion: The data obtained in this study show that both methods result in similar outcomes in terms of relieving nasal obstruction symptoms in patients requiring inferior turbinate intervention. Therefore, the researchers believe that, in each case, the intervention method should be selected at the discretion of the patient and surgeon(s).
Resumo Introdução: A obstrução mecânica é a forma mais comum de obstrução nasal. Entre os tipos de obstruções mecânicas, o desvio do septo e a hipertrofia de conchas inferiores são os mais prevalentes. Objetivo: Avaliar os resultados clínicos iniciais da aplicação de radiofrequência nas conchas inferiores e a lateralização delas combinada com septoplastia no tratamento dos sintomas de obstrução nasal. Método: O estudo avaliou retrospectivamente dados de 33 pacientes (24 homens, nove mulheres) que foram submetidos a septoplastia e aplicação de radiofrequência no concha inferior (grupo RF) e 32 pacientes (24 homens, oito mulheres) submetidos a septoplastia e lateralização de concha inferior (grupo LAT), que foram admitidos com queixas de obstrução nasal na University of Health Sciences, Departamento de Otorrinolaringologia, entre 1° de janeiro de 2017 e 1° de janeiro de 2018. Os sintomas pré-operatórios e pós-operatórios de 6 meses dos pacientes foram avaliados pela escala NOSE, do inglês Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation. Resultados: Os escores médios pré-operatórios da escala NOSE foram 10,3 ± 4,2 no grupo RF e 10,9 ± 4,9 no grupo LAT e os escores médios pós-operatórios de seis meses foram 1,09 ± 1,3 no grupo RF e 1,2 ± 1,3 no grupo LAT. Não houve diferença significante nos escores da escala NOSE entre os dois grupos (p > 0,05). Conclusão: Os dados obtidos neste estudo mostram que ambos os métodos têm resultados semelhantes em termos de alívio dos sintomas de obstrução nasal em pacientes que necessitam de intervenção nas conchas inferiores. Portanto, os pesquisadores acreditam que, em cada caso, o método de intervenção deve ser selecionado a critério do paciente e do cirurgião.

OBJECTIVES@#To compare the operation time, subjective and objective outcomes of septoplasty with three high-tension line resection and two high-tension line resection.@*METHODS@#A prospective randomized controlled study was conducted to identify patients with septal deviation and symptomatic nasal obstruction. The patients were classified into a three high-tension line resection and senior physician group (Group A), a two high-tension line resection and senior physician group (Group B), a three high-tension line resection and junior physician group (Group C), a two high-tension line resection and junior physician group (Group D). In addition, according to whether there were the anterior deviation, some of patients were also divided into a three high-tension line resection and anterior deviation group (Group E) and a two high-tension line resection and anterior deviation group (Group F). The operation time was recorded. The patients completed the Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) Scale (subjective symptom), nasal endoscopy (bodily sign) and rhinomanometry (objective examination) before and 6 months after septoplasty. The operation time and the efficacy were compared between three high-tension line resection operation and two high-tension line resection operation.@*RESULTS@#There was no significant difference in the operation time between the Group A and the Group B (@*CONCLUSIONS@#The effect of septoplasty with two high-tension line resection is as good as septoplasty with three high-tension line resection. The septoplasty with two high-tension line resection is more suitable to junior physician because it is easier and the operation time is shorter.
