Abstract

Objective: Septoplasty is a common rhinological intervention. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of septoplasty techniques applied to patients with septal deviation.
Materials and Methods: 300 patients admitted to our clinic in 2022 and 2023 and underwent septoplasty were involved and divided into two groups: The "Caudal", which used a caudal septal batten graft, and the "Classic", which involved the 2-5 region, where the caudal septum was not touched. The patients' conditions were evaluated by applying the NOSE scale preoperatively and postoperatively in the 1st and 3rd months.
Results: Our study included 223 patients who came for follow-up visits and consented to participate. The preoperative, postoperative 1st and 3rd month NOSE scale average scores of the "Caudal" group were 12.3±3.7, 5.4±2 and 2.8±1.2, respectively. In the "Classic" group, the values were 9.3±2.1, 5±1.4 and 3.3±1 and significantly different (p<0.001). When a comparison was made between the two groups, the changes in the postoperative 1st month were not found to be significantly different (p=0.152). In contrast, the preoperative and postoperative 3rd month results were different (p<0.001).
Conclusions: Septal batten grafts can be considered a useful endonasal technique in septoplasty surgery. Studies with more extended follow-up periods are needed.

Abstract

Amaç: Septoplasti en yaygın rinolojik cerrahi prosedürlerden birisidir. Bu çalışmada septum deviasyonu nedeniyle hastalara uygulanan septoplasti tekniklerinin etkinliğini değerlendirmeyi amaçladık.
Materyal ve Metot: 2022 ve 2023 yıllarında kliniğimize başvuran ve septoplasti operasyonu geçiren 300 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastalar septumdaki patolojinin özelliğine ve yapılan cerrahinin şekline göre; kaudal septal batten greft kullanılan “Kaudal” grup ve 2-5. bölgeyi içeren ve kaudal septuma dokunulmayan, Cottle metodu kullanılan “Klasik” grup şeklinde iki gruba ayrıldı. Hastalara preoperatif, postoperatif 1. ve 3. aylarda NOSE skalası uygulanarak durum değerlendirmesi yapıldı.
Bulgular: Çalışmamıza takip ziyaretleri için gelen ve katılmayı kabul eden 223 hasta dahil edildi. Kaudal grubun ameliyat öncesi, ameliyat sonrası 1. ve 3. aydaki NOSE ölçeği puan ortalamaları sırasıyla 12,3±3,7, 5,4±2 ve 2,8±1,2 olarak belirlendi. "Klasik" grupta ise değerler 9,3±2,1, 5±1,4 ve 3,3±1 olup anlamlı derecede farklıydı (p<0,001). İki grup arasında karşılaştırma yapıldığında ameliyat sonrası 1. aydaki değişiklikler anlamlı olarak farklı bulunmadı (p=0,152). Buna karşın ameliyat öncesi ve ameliyat sonrası 3. ay sonuçları farklıydı (p<0,001).
Sonuç: Dikkatli hasta seçimi ve doğru uygulama planlaması sayesinde septal batten greftler, günümüzün septoplasti cerrahisinde en yararlı endonazal tekniklerden biri olarak kabul edilebilir. Hastaların daha uzun takip süresi ile değerlendirildiği gelecek çalışmalara ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
