A new endoscopic technique to close big nasal septal perforations: prospective evaluation of the double meat hook technique in 19 consecutive cases

Abstract

Despite the variety of surgical techniques available to close big symptomatic septum perforations, closure rates of 30 to 70% indicate the difficulty of obtaining a good end result.

The double meat hook technique is a new endoscopically assisted technique that delivers excellent visualization and control of mucosal flap elevation, extension and suturing.

Mucosa from the nasal floor, lateral nasal wall and inferior turbinate bone are valuable donor site extensions.

There is no need for additional incisions into the nasal septal mucosa in order to perform a tension-free closure. Preservation of the structural integrity and blood supply of the mucosal flaps, possibly contributes to a high closure rate and delivers a physiological result.
