ABSTRACT
Objective:
To measure the success of the fascia lata-fat island graft technique in septal perforation repair as measured by nasal endoscopic examination.Background:
This study presents the results of using fascia lata-fat island, a different graft technique, for the repair of septal perforations, offering an alternative to this challenging procedure.Methods:
This retrospective study assesses nasal septal perforation repair using the fascia lata-fat island graft technique performed by a single surgeon. Inclusion criteria involved completing 12-month follow-ups within a 3-year review period. Success rates were calculated and evaluated alongside patient characteristics.Results:
The median (range) age of the 25 patients included in the study was 34 (25-45) years and 72.0% were men. The septal perforation size of all patients was >2 cm and the etiological cause in all of them was previous septal surgery. All patients were followed for 12 months. The perforation was completely closed in 23 of 25 patients (92%).Conclusion:
Using a different graft with an open rhinoplasty approach, we achieved a high success rate in patients with large septal perforations, followed for 1 month with nasal stenting and an average follow-up duration of 12 months.
