OUTCOMES OF SEPTOPLASTY IN THE TREATMENT OF NASAL OBSTRUCTION AND RELATED SYMPTOMS

The aim of this study is to investigate the clinical effectiveness of septoplasty in patients suffering from nasal obstruction due to deviated nasal septum (DNS). The research seeks to evaluate preoperative and postoperative symptoms including nasal airflow, snoring, headache, and sleep quality, using validated clinical questionnaires and nasal endoscopy. Additionally, the study aims to determine the correlation between symptom relief and the extent of septal deviation correction. By analyzing outcomes across a diverse patient group, this study intends to contribute practical evidence toward improving surgical techniques and patient satisfaction. The primary objective of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy and long-term outcomes of septoplasty in patients suffering from nasal obstruction caused by a deviated nasal septum. Specifically, the study aims to:
