Septoplasty

Clinical Information

A procedure used to treat nasal breathing problems caused by deviation of the nasal septum, the midline divider in the nasal passage between the nostrils. This is performed within the nasal passage usually with no external incisions. It is sometimes combined with procedures to decrease the size of enlarged nasal turbinates which are the natural shelves running the length of the nasal passage.
