nose button placement

When the nasal septum is perforated, the perforation can be repaired by nasal button placement. Treatment of diseases: nasal septal perforation, traumatic nasal septum perforation Indication Extra large perforations are difficult for surgical repair, or older and frail can not tolerate more complicated surgery. Preoperative preparation Antibiotics are routinely used before surgery. Surgical procedure If using a silicone disc, the size and position of the perforation should be measured first, and the silicone disc should be trimmed so that the disc is slightly larger than the perforation, and then the suture is placed from the nasal cavity of one side, so that the disc covers the perforated area of the nasal septum. If it is a flat-conical silicone disc on both sides, the two halves of the silicone disc should be placed from the nasal chambers on both sides, respectively, and pushed to the perforated area to tighten the button at the center.
