Subjective symptom scores, nasalairflow and nasal secretion were measured regularly during allergen challenge.
2
BACKGROUND Nasal septal perforation (NSP) may alter nasalairflow patterns and physiology.
3
The role of inferior turbinate hypertrophy in the reduction of nasalairflow is well established.
4
The decongestion test evaluates whether the application of an intranasal vasoconstrictor drug increases nasalairflow.
5
This study attempts to evaluate the effects of deviation of external nose to nasalairflow patterns.
6
We achieved excellent results in 3 patients using this technique, with improvement in subjective nasalairflow across 100% of stenoses and complete resolution in 83%.
