Abstract

Objective: The Aim was to contrast the mean correction of nasal deviation between closed and open rhinoplasty in treating traumatic nasal abnormalities. Techniques: An RCT was used. The OPD of ENT Unit-1 Allied Hospital Faisalabad enrolled 60 patients matching the inclusion criteria. Both open (Group A) and closed (Group B) rhinoplasties were done at random using the lottery technique. Under GA, the same consultant carried out the surgeries. Patients were monitored for a month in order to address nasal deviations (at post-operative, second and fourth week). Final evaluation was conducted on 28th day. Results: In Group A 33.33 percent and in Group B 40 percent patients were between the ages of 41 and 60. In Group A (open approach) 66.67 percent (n=20) and in Group B (closed approach) 60 percent (n=18) were between the ages of 18 and 40. The mean and standard deviation were 35.4+11.02 and 37.53+10.91 years, respectively. Males in group A made up 70 percent (n=21) and of Group B 63.33 percent(n=19), whilst females in group A made up 30 percent (n=9) and in group B 36.67 percent (n=11). The bony component was corrected as 16.00+3.59 in A Group and 10.40+2.59 in B Group, with a p-value of .001, while the cartilage component was corrected as 11.63+1.92 in A Group and 7.40+4.45 in B Group, with a p-value of .0001, indicating a significant difference.  Conclusion: open rhinoplasty improves mean nasal deviation better than closed rhinoplasty.
