The clinical use of midfacial degloving and modified hemifacial degloving approach associated with nasal endoscopy surgery in nasal surgery / 临床耳鼻咽喉头颈外科杂志

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To explore the method and effect of the midfacial degloving approach and modified hemifacial degloving approach associated with nasal endoscopic surgery in the treatment of the nasal diseases.@*METHOD@#Thirty patients with nasal diseases were treated with nasal endoscopic surgery by midfacial degloving approach and modified hemifacial degloving approach. Four cases underwent midfacial degloving approach with standard method, three cases were underwent by hemifacial degloving approach and our modified hemifacial degloving approach associated with nasal endoscopic surgery were performed in twenty-three cases. We used Caldwell-Luc's approaches which located mainly in affected-side, and modified bilateral intercartilaginous incision, which at first peeled off integrality healthy-side cutis and mucosa of nasal septum as well as periosteum of basis nasi. With preserving the integrality of the healthy-side nasal cavity parenchyma, the pyriform aperture incisions extending to the healthy-side vestibule wasn't been cut. With the incisions of septal cartilage of nasal and disease- side cutis and mucosa of nasal septum as well as the pyriform aperture incisions extending to the affected-side vestibule, the lesion were cleared away completely by modified midfacial degloving approach associated with nasal endoscopic surgery.@*RESULT@#All cases cuts achieved primary healing. One of four cases with midfacial degloving approach suffered from straightness of nasal vestibule. One of three cases with hemifacial degloving approach was led to perforation of nasal septum. In 23 cases operated hy modified hemifacial degloving approach, no straightness of nasal vestibule and no perforation of nasal septum was happened.@*CONCLUSION@#The midfacial degloving approach and modified hemifacial degloving associated with endoscopic surgery can achieve the advantages of a widely exposed field for operation, no facial scar, making tumour resection easier, and also no nasal- stuffed in healthy nasal cavity as well as no straightness of nasal vestibule after modified approach.
