ABSTRACT
Owing to the complexity of the deviated structures and the septal deformities accompanying the external nasal deformities, the complete correction of the deviated nose is regarded as a difficult one. The approach to the nasal bone and osteotomy in classic corrective rhinoplasty is almost blind technique, where the results depends on the feeling by surgeon's hand. To overcome these drawback, endoscopic-assisted corrective rhinoplasty and septoplasty performed for 8 cases of deviated nose between January 1996 and May 1997. Average follow-up period was 10 months. All patients were evaluated by symmetrical nasal pyramid, recurrence of the bony deflection and septal deviation. The postoperative courses were satisfactory in most of cases with few complications. It appears that endoscopic control during corrective rhinoplasty and septoplasty is a big step toward obtaining better results in bony and cartilage resection with extreme precision under monitor control and magnification. This technique is not an open approach but permits one to see more of the nasal skeleton and bony septum what is causing deformity, and the immediate effect of the corrective measures used. The use of endoscope in corrective rhinoplasty will provide expanded field of vision, direct manipulation of lesions, and better aesthetic an6 functional results.
