Open Technique Septoplasty Operation

Nasal Septum Deviation

Nasal septum, a structure which contain bone and cartilage and it's covered with mucosa,Nasal septum is divided into two vertically separated the nasal cavity. If there is a curvature that can be seen in this structure due to birth or later trauma, it is called "nasal septum deviation" or "nasal septal deviation" (links you can find detailed information >>​ Deviated Septum Surgery in Istanbul

Symptoms of Nasal Septum Deviation

In patients with nasal septum deviations, airway resistance increases on the side on which it is deviated (ie, on the side where the septum convexity is located), and the entry and exit of air becomes more difficult. For this reason, patients may experience nasal congestion, mouth open inhalation, and many related symptoms.

The nose is like a purification, heating, humidifying motor that makes the air taken from the outside fit the lungs. It is not just the lungs that this device becomes clogged and unable to function due to very different reasons, such as deviation, nasal growth, nasal polyp, allergic rhinitis, or nasal enlargement; can indirectly affect the functioning of all of the cells in our body by reducing blood oxygen levels.

For the purpose of nasal septum deviation treatment, the general practice of the operations is to "remove curved cartilage areas that close the airway in the nose without altering the nasal anatomy, without disturbing the nose support".

Types of Nasal Septum Deviation

Septum deviation types can be grouped as shown in the figure on the left side.

In fact, as the amount of curvature increases and closes to the "nasal valve region", the narrowest airway region of the nose, intra-nasal airway resistance increases and the amount of related symptoms increases. Bone protrusions extending from the nasal septum towards the nasal flesh may additionally cause headaches of unknown cause (articles on the subject >> Nasal Bone Spur - Symptoms, Diagnosis ...

The nose is like a purification, heating and humidification engine that makes the air taken from outside into the lungs. It is not only the lungs that it becomes clogged and dysfunctional due to many different reasons such as deviation, nasal flesh enlargement, nasal polyps, allergic rhinitis or enlarged meat. It can indirectly affect the work of cells throughout our body through a decrease in blood oxygen levels.

For the purpose of the treatment of nasal septum deviation, the general principle of the operations is to "remove the curved cartilage areas that close the airway inside the nose without changing the nasal anatomy, disrupting the nasal support".

Why The Open Septoplasty Is Needed?

The classical nasal septum deviation correction operations are done with closed technique, ie in the nose. Especially in the case of the inferior part of septum (caudal septum) deviation it is more convenient to do this with open technique. Roughly, the reason for this can be explained as follows: If the caudal septum section, which is very important for nasal tip support, is removed with closed technique septoplasty, the nasal tip support can become as weak (even the patients say "my nose tip is changed as "soft" after nose surgery"). In order to reconstruct the nasal support, the procedure is performed with open technique. The graft is prepared from the flat parts of the posterior side of the septum to replace the caudal septum (columellar strut graft) instead of the caudal septum and the nasal tip is reattached.

Surgical Details About Open Septoplasty?

Open technique septoplasty begins with a five-point incision on the columella, located between the nostrils, such as open technical nasal aesthetic surgery. The procedure can be performed under local, sedation anesthesia or general anesthesia. Unlike conventional closed-technique septoplasty, there is no need for additional incision (Killian incision) on the septum in the nose. Only the nose skin is lifted and the nose septum is made visible. Cartilaginous cartilaginous tissue at the nose and at the posterior side is removed. New support cartilage grafts are prepared (strut graft) at the tip of the nose, and the procedure is terminated after the skin sutures are implanted. After the procedure, I usually prefer to place silicone nose splints that allow breathing and do not stick to the nose hairs.

How Long Does Open Septoplasty Operation?

While conventional closed technique septoplasty operation lasts 15-30 min, open technique septoplasty can last 45-60 min.

Open Septoplasty Surgery Price

The cost of open septoplasty in İstanbul can vary depending on the patient, whether or not there is turbinate radiofrequencey procedure that can be done together, and the length of the procedure. The cost of the surgery can range from 2000 to 3000 Dollars.

Postoperative Patient Care After The Open Septoplasty

In this operation, in addition to what should be done after classical septoplasty surgery, it is suitable to apply antibiotic ointments at the tip of the nose. Likewise, application of moisturizing drops and oceanic water sprays into the nose is sufficient to use antibiotics and, if necessary, pain relief in the first week. In addition, it may be necessary to apply Arnica gel to the nose tip. Shampooed or detergent waters should not enter the nose for 2-3 weeks after the operation. Silicone splints in the nose are usually removed after the first week

Do You Have Bruise on Your Face After Open Septoplasty?

In this surgery, the nasal bone is not broken, it is not expected to be bruise or excessive swelling. However, only edema extending from the nose tip to the adjacent cheek area can be seen. I suggest walking in the cool air in the afternoon and using arnica gel for the nasal drops.

Open Septoplasty Without Nasal Packing

If the septum deviation of the nose is limited only to the front part, if the no additional nasal surgery done with it, the open technical septoplasty operation can be done without the buffer. Genellikle hastalarda, deviasyona eşlik eden burun eti büyümesi olduğundan, işlem esnasında, ilave olarak turbinate radiofrequency ameliyatı da yapılabilmektedir (you can see details about turbinate radiofrequency at this link >> Radiofrequency Turbinate Reduction in Istanbul).
