| Popis: | OBJECTIVES Correcting the caudal septum deviation is one of the most difficult parts of the septoplasty. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the efficiency and usefulness of traction suture method in caudal septum deviations. METHODS Medical records of 35 patients who underwent endonasal septoplasty using traction suture method for caudal septum deviation in August 2017-February 2019 period were studied retrospectively. Preoperative nasal obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE) scores of the patients were compared with postoperative sixth month NOSE scores. Besides, preoperative nasal examination findings of the patients were compared with the ones in postoperative period. RESULTS Average age of the 35 patients (9 women and 26 men) in the study was 26.3 ± 10.1 years. Postoperative observations revealed that a straight septum was achieved in 31 patients (91.1%). Average pre- and postoperative NOSE scores were 85.1 ± 20.4 and 22.4 ± 4.2, respectively (P |
