| Popis: | To propose a classification of anatomical variation of the caudal septal deviation and propose strategy for the management of caudal septal deviation by septo-rhinoplasty and to evaluate the efficacy of treatment of different types of caudal septal deviation in terms of aesthetic and functional outcome. The study is a retrospective review of 124 cases with significant anterior caudal deviation causing aesthetic and or functional problems, treated by septo-rhinoplasty within a 5 year period from December 2014 to December 2019, with a minimum follow up of 6 months. Visual analogue scale, photographic evaluation and subjective assessment were used for postoperative outcomes. Significant improvement in the treatment of nasal obstruction was achieved, with mean visual analogue scale score of 7.83 preoperatively to 3.56 postoperatively, Subjective assessment showed marked satisfaction in 96 patients, moderate satisfaction in 21 and no improvement in seven patients of total 124 patients. The rate of revision was (4%). A novel classification of anterior caudal septal deviation is proposed with surgical technique directed for individual deformity and we have achieved very good results. |
