ABSTRACT
Nasal septoplasty and inferior turbinate reduction are common procedures performed in the treatment of nasal obstruction. These procedures are generally considered to be safe with minimal reported complications. Herein, we describe a case of a 43-year-old female who developed transient unilateral mydriasis following septoplasty with inferior turbinate reduction, likely due to the sympathomimetic agents used for vasoconstriction and mucosal decongestion.
