Abstract

To evaluate a new operative technique for treating nasal valve collapse for safety and effectiveness. A nonrandomized pilot study of patients with complaints of nasal airway obstruction, a positive Cottle maneuver, and clinical findings of nasal valve collapse. Follow-up ranged from 1 to 20 months. Academic medical center, including a Veterans Affairs hospital. Twelve men aged 38 to 73 years (mean age, 59.3 years). Subjective self-assessment scores for nasal airflow were collected on a 10-point scale. Anterior rhinomanometry, acoustic rhinometry, and photographic analysis provided objective data. The procedure involves accessing the orbital rim by a transconjunctival incision, then passing sutures from the nose to this incision where they may be affixed to the orbital rim. The collapsing tissue of the nasal valve is thus supported and collapse is prevented. All patients reported immediate subjective improvement in their symptoms of nasal obstruction; this was reflected in their self-assessment scores. The rhinomanometry showed reduced nasal resistance in 10 (83%) of 12 patients. The acoustic rhinometry showed an increase in minimum cross-sectional area in 2 (33%) of 6 patients, with the others remaining stable. The photographic...Continue Reading
