Closure of the Nasal Septum Perforation

Technical Advances in the Correction of Septal Perforation Associated With Closed Rhinoplasty

“…The incidence of these symptoms depends on the location and size of the perforation. [21][22][23][24] Nasal septal perforations may cause functional and cosmetic problems. The cosmetic problems associated with septal perforations are caused by the loss of structural support of the nasal septum, leading to external deformities, the most common of which are saddle-nose deformity and columellar retraction.…”

Closure of perforations of the septum including a single‐session method for large defects

“…Closure with obturators. This method, first proposed by Meyer and, independently, by Link in 1951, and later on by Papangelou (1969) and Von Dishoeck (19751, in which a button consisting of two plastic discs glued together in the middle is inserted into the defect, has been abandoned by us at the present time in favor of surgical procedure^.^-^ 3. Surgical enlargement of the defect.…”
