“…In its most anterior part, it forms the anterior nasal spine (1). The nasal septum (figure 1) is a vertical midline structure extending anteriorly to the columella, posteriorly to the rostrum sphenoidal, superiorly to the anterior base of the skull, and inferiorly to the nose floor (2).…”

Objectives: Despite the various approaches currently available to treat CSD, this issue still needs to be resolved. Different methods and techniques to manage caudal septal dislocation with good results and according to each patient. This article reviewed the other surgical modalities for correcting caudal septum dislocation with the effectiveness of currently practiced modalities. Searching strategy: We reviewed relevant literature and used PubMed and Google Scholar. Published articles in English were included in the search. The unique and compound keywords used were caudal septum dislocation. The primary search resulted in many reports from all databases and search engines, followed by the exclusion of irrelevant articles. Findings: Different surgical modalities for correcting caudal septum dislocation have been described to correct caudal septum dislocations. Several techniques and maneuvers for surgical correction of caudal septal displacement are mentioned in the literature; nevertheless, there are different opinions and preferences regarding which approach to use. Conclusion and recommendations: An ideal caudal septoplasty should be minimally invasive and improve nasal obstruction. Surgical correction of a deviated septum can be performed using the traditional open endonasal approach, the endoscopic approach, or the open septorhinoplasty approach. In Saudi Arabia, many patients are seeking caudal septal deviation correction. However, there is a need for more trained surgeons, and it is recommended that all levels of training be considered.

The aim: To study the impact of the internal nasal valve shape on respiratory and olfactory nose function as well as on quality of life. Materials and methods: The study involved 17 volunteers who noted satisfaction of nasal breathing in the absence of changes during endorhinoscopy. The study was con¬ducted in two stages: stage 1 involved assessing initial indicators of quality of life by the SNOT-22 questionnaire, performing active anterior rhinomanometry, and estimating the olfactory function (Sniffin’ Sticks); stage 2 consisted in re-assessing the mentioned indicators after changing the shape and lumen of the internal nasal valve. The sodium alginate self-hardening gel was used for simulating the narrowing of the nasal valve. It was applied to the mucous in the upper part of the nasal valve area, obturating the diffuser above the level of attachment of the middle nasal turbinate to a depth of 3-4 mm from nasal vestibule. Results: Air resistance did not change significantly after partial blockage of the internal nasal valve, although, 16 out of 17 patients showed signs of hyposmia with an average Sniffin’ Sticks test score 8.68 ± 0.15. Conclusions: The simulated partial blockage of the internal nasal valve lumen in its upper part in the area of the diffuser does not significantly affect the resistance of the air passing through the nasal passages, but the olfactory function is impaired, which is reflected the quality of life.
