dc.description.abstract | Objectives The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of septoplasty and the effects of septoplasty on the quality of life and to determine postoperative patient satisfaction in children using nose obstruction symptom evaluation (NOSE) and visual analog scale (VAS). Methods Only pediatric patients who underwent septoplasty were included in the study. Patients who underwent adenoidectomy, endoscopic sinus surgery, or turbinate surgery in addition to septoplasty and total septal reconstruction with open technique septorhinoplasty were excluded from the study. Patients and their parents were inquired about their nasal obstruction symptoms using the NOSE scale before and 3 and 12 months following the surgery. VAS was used to analyze overall satisfaction of the patients and their parents on the outcomes of surgery, at the last follow-up examination 12 months after the surgery. Results Thirty-five patients with a mean age of 13.4 ± 2.8 (8–16) were included in the study. There was a very significant improvement in NOSE score at 3 months after septoplasty. The mean subjective satisfaction score measured with VAS at the 12th month postoperatively was 7.9 ± 2.1. Improvement in NOSE score was correlated with patient satisfaction. Conclusion Septoplasty is a very effective and satisfactory treatment for nasal obstruction caused by nasal septal deviation in children. The NOSE scale can be used for the evaluation of nasal obstruction symptoms. | en_US |
