Abstract

The deviated nose is a common problem. Correction of this deformity presents a challenge because frequently a functional as well as aesthetic problem must be addressed. In order to correct deviated nose, a thorough study of different structures that may lead to deviation as bony framework, septum, upper and lower lateral cartilage is mandatory. Clinical cases with various degrees of nasal deviation as well as various degrees of nasal obstruction were studied. It was concluded that most of cases were corrected by either osteotomy of nasal bones, freeing, scoring, suturing and submucous resection of septum. Very complicated cases with severe functional problem required more complicated procedures as inferior turbinatectomy. Camouflaging was used in cases with persistent deviation.
