Summary

There is currently little data comparing intranasal silicone splinting versus trans-septal quilted suturing in terms of preventing problems following septoplasty. The purpose of this study is to compare the results of intranasal silicone splinting with trans-septal quilted suturing following septoplasty. After septoplasty, this study will give us a better procedure with fewer adverse effects. Based on the outcomes, this can then regularly be used that specific approach in general practice to treat these specific individuals in an effort to lower their morbidity

Interventions

PROCEDURE

trans-septal quilting suturing

The dead space in group A will be closed using a 3-0 vicryl and a curved cutting needle. The suture was first positioned at the posterior end of the septum under endoscopic view, and a knot will be tied at the distal end of the suture material. After that, the process continued continuously from inferior to superior side-to-side in a zigzag pattern until the caudal end of the septum was reached. The suture will then be tied on itself, usually on the side opposite the first knot

PROCEDURE

intranasal silicone splinting

a 2-0 silk mattress suture will be used to secure a 1 mm flat silicone splint that has been covered with fucidin ointment intranasally and bilaterally around the septum at the caudal end. Every patient will be monitored for a week, during which time any post-operative pain and any septal hematomas as defined by the procedure will be recorded. Following surgery, synachiae will be evaluated four weeks later
