Popis: | To investigate the asymmetry of the inferior turbinate (IT) in patients with nasal septum deviation (NSD). The paranasal sinus computed tomography (CT) of 100 patients with NSD were retrospectively investigated from February 2018 to December 2019. The thickness of IT, IT mucosa and IT bone, the distance between the IT and the midline were measured on both the concave and convex sides, and which correlation with NSD was analyzed. The widths of the IT, IT bone and IT medial mucosa on the concave side were larger than those on the convex side (all P |
