The Role of the Inferior Turbinates in Congenital Pyriform Aperture Stenosis
These results indicate that the inferior turbinates tend to be medialized in newborns with CNPAS. This suggests that the inferior turbinates may be a significant factor in infants with CNPAS, thus pointing to the potential value of their surgical reduction. Therefore, measuring the inferior turbinate width can provide additional insight into the severity of nasal obstruction and assist in determining the appropriate management strategy.
