Abstrakt: Perforations of the nasal septum have many etiologies and occasionally result from intranasal medicated spray use. This case report describes a perforation related to the use of desmopressin nasal spray, which has not been previously reported in the literature. Clinical considerations presented in this article include appropriate technique of nasal spray application, appropriate monitoring of patients on intranasal sprays, and indications for evaluation by an otolaryngologist. Septal perforation treatment success is improved with an early diagnosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
