Deviated nose: Physiological and pathological changes of the nasal cavity
Taek‐Kyun Kim, Jae Yong Jeong
Abstract
Deviated nose is highly challenging in rhinoplasty since the surgeon should consider both aesthetic and functional aspects of the nose. Deviated nose correction is surgically complex, and a thorough understanding of the mechanical and physiological changes of intranasal structures, including the septum and turbinates, is necessary for functional improvement.
