Procedure Details

The patient presented with nasal airway obstruction due to trauma from playing sports. Not only did the patient have a deviated septum and turbinate hypertrophy, but a bump on the bridge of the nose. It was decided to relieve the patient of her symptoms she needed a septoplasty with turbinate reduction. At the time of surgery the patient also had the bump removed and the nose reduced in size.
