BACKGROUND Septoplasty is a common procedure performed for the primary indication of nasal airway obstruction. Physical examination with anterior rhinoscopy (AR) and nasal endoscopy (NE) is considered the gold standard for detecting and rating septal deviation. Computed tomography (CT) can also be used to evaluate the nasal septum. Otolaryngologists may use CT in selecting surgical candidates, ...

Septoplasty is performed to resolve breathing problems, but it often becomes pivotal to correct external nasal deviation, representing a central step in rhinoplasty surgery.
