ABSTRACT
Controversy still exists regarding the precise contribution of the nasal septum to facial growth and development. Several reports indicate that early surgical intervention for the correction of nasal septum abnormalities leads to a high recurrence rate that necessitates revision procedures in adulthood. In this study we compared a group of patients with posterior nasal septum deformities to a control group by using cephalometric radiographs and recording several measurements on composite tracings. Our data, analysed by a computerized statistical programme, demonstrate significant differences between the two groups, supporting the view that the development of the anterior part of the neurocranium influences the development of posterior nasal septum deformities.
