Abstract:Deviated nasal septum is a common condition, which is quite often asymtomatic, but may present with persistent morbidity in some. In this prospective cross sectional study, 100 patients with deviated nasal septum were included who were symptomatic. 48 patients needed surgical intervention while 52 were managed conservatively. Results were compared on follow up. 96% cases reported improvement in nasal obstruction post surgery, compared to 79% following conservative management.
