Mukozal rotasyon flep tekniği ile nazal septal perforasyon tamiri sonuçları

Abstract

Objective: Analyzing the outcome of nasal septal perforation repair with endonasal mucosal flap rotation technique. Material and Methods: The medical records of the patients who had nasal septal perforation repair using a rotational mucosal flap between 2004 to 2013 were reviewed retrospectively. Data were recorded for sex, cause of disease, size of perforation, complications and closure of the perforation. Results: The mean age of 14 patients included in the study was 30.07±8.24 years (minimum 18-maximum 50). Complete closure of septal perforation was observed in 11 patients (78.6%). In two of 3 patients (21.4%) in whom perforations persisted, the size of the perforations decreased. No serious complications were noted in the patients. Conclusion: Repair of septal perforations by mucosal rotation flaps has a high success rate. In addition to being simple and easy to apply, this technique has no serious complication. © 2014 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
