Considerations for nasal bone fractures: Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative

Abstract

Nowadays, the incidence of nasal bone fracture is increasing because of social complexity with frequent social activity, and reduction of fractures is relatively simple and can be corrected in short operation time. However, the postoperative results are known to be less satisfied with higher complication rates relatively. These problems could have resulted from inaccurate recognition and interpretation of fracture aspect, inaccurate planning of operation resulting in under or over-correction, ignoring septal management, complication related nasal packings with removal, postoperative management, and patient satisfaction with complication.
