Septoplasty
Septoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct the shape of the septum of the nose. The nasal septum is the separation between the two nostrils. In adults, the septum is composed partly of cartilage and partly of bone. Sometimes an extra piece of bone will grow out from the septum and create a spur. The goal of this procedure is to correct defects or deformities of the septum that can cause nasal obstruction or even sinus problems. Septal deviations are either congenital (present from birth) or develop as a result of an injury.
Septoplasty is needed for:
- chronic and uncontrolled nosebleeds
- nasal septal deformity
- nasal air passage obstruction
- obstructive sleep apnea
- sinus headaches caused by septal spurs
- chronic sinusitis associated with a deviated septum
- turbinate surgery
- polypectomy (polyp removal)
- as part of sinus surgery
- tumor excision
