Abstract

Objectives. To critically evaluate the surgical treatment strategies for nasal valve collapse and their outcomes. Method. A systematic review of studies for surgically treated nasal valve collapse from 1970 to 2006 including an analysis of techniques and their outcomes. Database search of EBM reviews, (Cochrane, DARE, CCTR & ACP Journal club), Medline and EMBASE’ including a hand search of bibliographies in identified papers. The outcomes used are success of techniques at relieving symptoms and cosmesis. The inclusion criteria was a minimum of 10 patients in each study with a defined minimum 6‐month period of follow‐up. Results. No randomised trials exist; 31 studies met the minimal inclusion criteria. Seventeen addressed the internal nasal valve, seven the external nasal valve and seven both. A variety of techniques have been used including spreader grafts, alar batten grafts, splay grafts, butterfly grafts, and lateral expansion sutures. All techniques have high success rates with no single technique appearing more successful than others. Studies had similar inclusion criteria and a mean follow up >12 months. The level of evidence is III. Few studies provided objective measures of nasal airflow in the form of rhinomanometry, but when presented results were significantly improved. Conclusions. A variety of surgical techniques are available to deal with nasal valve collapse. The specific pathological problem causing obstruction at the nasal valve must be identified and the su…

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Collapse of the nasal valve is a frequent and less well-known cause of nasal obstruction.

    “The collapse of the nasal valve, which leads to closure of the airway during inspiration, is a frequent and less well-known cause of NO [235,236].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
