This study was performed to determine a comprehensive anatomic variation and deviation of the nasal septum in clinically normal dogs by use of computed tomography (CT). The nasal septum was evaluated in 36 shihtzu dogs and 16 beagle dogs. A degree of a septal deviation was evaluated by measuring a maximum angle and a distance of the septal deviation. The angle and distance of the septal deviation were significantly higher in shih-tzu dogs than in beagle dogs. There was no significant relationship between body weight and age and all measurements (angle and distance) in both breed dogs. Results of this study suggest that nasal septum deviation and its defect are observed on CT images of clinically normal dogs, especially in shih-tzu dogs.

Purpose This study aimed to determine whether nasal septal deviation and concha bullosa affect the maxillary sinus volume, and whether this effect is associated with the prevalence of chronic sinusitis. Materials and Methods This study retrospectively reviewed 209 paranasal sinus CT (PNS CT) images of patients with sinonasal symptoms from January 2017 to December 2018. The maxillary sinus volume was measured twice by a radiologist, and statistical analysis was performed using SAS 9.4. Results Intersex comparison of the maxillary sinus volume (on left and right sides) revealed that the volume was significantly larger on both the sides (p < 0.0001) in men compared with that in women. Concha bullosa was found to occur mainly in the concave cavity of the septal deviation (p < 0.0001). No significant association was found between nasal septal deviation and maxillary sinusitis (p = 0.8756) as well as between concha bullosa and maxillary sinusitis prevalence (p = 0.3401) or maxillary sinus volume (both: p = 0.6289, Rt.: p = 0.9522, Lt.: p = 0.9201). Conclusion Although nasal septal deviation and the location of concha bullosa may affect each other, maxillary sinus volume and maxillary sinusitis were neither associated with nasal septal deviation nor concha bullosa.

일반적으로 기관협착의 치료는 기관절재후 단단문합술로 가능하나 광범위한 기관협착이 발생하였을 때는 그 치료가 매우 어렵다. 이경우는 기도전벽을 개방하여 경부 피부와 기관연을 봉합하는 Trough를 형성한 뒤 이차적으로 연골이식이나 경부 피부를 이용한 피판을 만들어서 기관을 재건하는 Trough방법이 주로 적용되고 있다. 이 때 이식되는 연골은 늑연골 이나 비중격 연골이며 측벽의 재건에는 늑연골이 좋고 전벽의 재건에는 점막이 붙어 있는 비중격 연골의 복합이식편이 사용될 수 있다. 본 교실에서는 기관 절제 후 단단문합술이 불가능하였던 5명의 환자에서 Trough방법을 이용하여 기관 재건에 성공하였기에 그 결과를 보고하고자 한다.

Angiofibroma in otorhinolaryngologic field is rare, highly vascular and non-metastatizing benign tumor. It was noted as histologically benign but clinically malignant tumor because of the anatomical site, severe bleeding in surgery and recurrence in incomplete removal. It occurs almostly in nasopharynx of adolescent males. Recently, the authors have experienced a very rare case of angiofibroma which occupied the nasal septum in a 37-years-old-male with complaints of nasal obstruction and frequent nasal bleeding. The tumor mass was removed surgically through intranasal approach under local anesthesia. We report our case with review of current literatures.

Correction of the cleft-lip nasal deformity is a difficult task that requires clear understanding of the associated complex anatomy and function as well as the operation time, the selection of an operation method, On the expectation that it helps enhance understanding the current trend of cleft-rhinoplasty, authors analyzed secondary rhinoplasty between 1999 and 2002, In both the unilateral and bilateral cleft lip rhinoplasty, we reviewed the timing of repair, site of correction and it's major technique, incision or approach method, autogenous cartilage graft method, All patients with a septal deviation did not have a septal surgery, We were active in alar and nasal tip surgery and passive in septal and dorsal deformity correction, And for children, we used a conservative method but for adults, we used radical approach, Most surgeries are focused on esthetic goal and we thought that objective evaluation for nasal obstruction was needed for bener and predictable outcome.

Chondrosarcomas are uncommon tumors. Approximately 5-10% are located in the head and neck. Nasal septal chondrosarcoma is exceedingly rare, with an extensive review of the world literature revealing only 50 reported cases. Most occur in middle-aged man. Surgical resection is the definitive treatment of choice. Radiation and chemotherapy are reserved for residual or recurrent diseases and palliation. We present a case of nasal septal chondrosarcoma treated with craniofacial resection and postoperative radiation therapy.

Background: Septoplasty with turbinate surgery is common surgical treatment in patients with septal deviation and chronic hypertrophic rhinitis. The aim of this study was to evaluation objective outcomes of septoplasty with turbinate surgery by analysis of subjective symptom score with objective acoustic rhinometric test before and after surgery, prospectively. Materials and Methods: We reviewed 45 adult patients which were done septoplasty with bilateral turbinectomy or turbinoplasty and followed up at least 3 months by one rhinologist from November 1999 to April 2000, prospectively. We analyzed subjective symptom score, minimal cross-sectional area (MCA), C-notch cross-sectional area, and total volume of both nasal cavity before and after surgery. Correlation test was studied between symptom improvement and acoustic rhinometric results. Results: Twenty nine cases were male and sixteen cases female. The average age was 26.9 year-old (range: 17 to 57 years). There was significantly improvement of symptom score in postoperative 3 months (p<0.05). There was significantly increased C-notch cross-sectional area and total volume in postoperative 3 months. Symptoms improvement were associated with acoustic rhinometric profiles, but, there was not significantly correlation. Conclusion: Septoplasty with turbinate surgery is considered to be effective for nasal obstruction in patients with septal deviation and turbinate hypertrophy. Acoustic rhinometric test is favorable objective test for evaluation of symptom improvement after septal surgery.
