Description
Introduction: One of the common reasons of nasal blockage is a deviated nasal septum. Numerous methods have been used to correct a deviated nasal septum, with septoplasty being the most frequent. After endoscopes were developed and successfully used in endoscopic sinus surgery, they were tested in septoplasty for better understanding of the posterior section of the septum and performing the procedure more precisely and safely comparing to the traditional approach. The study’s goals were to examine the results of conventional and endoscopic septoplasty, to assess the benefits, risks, and side effects of both endoscopic and conventional septoplasty. Method: In this prospective observational study, 60 patients with deviated nasal septum who visited the ENT Department of Anugrah Narayan Magadh Medical College, Gaya, Bihar were randomly assigned to two groups for conventional and endoscopic septoplasty, respectively. Analysing the findings after gathering data on a prestructured proforma. Result: There were 60 patients in the research. At the conclusion of the three-month postoperative period, the patient showed chronic posterior deviation that was 10% in group A and 3.3% in group B, as well as a spur that was 3.3% in group A and also in group B. Conclusion: Endoscopic septoplasty provides a clear advantage over conventional septoplasty due to superior illumination that makes it possible to accurately diagnose the pathology, remove the crooked area of the septum exactly, and straighten the cartilage for the best outcomes.
