Summary
Research Question: Performing partial turbinectomy associated with rhinoseptoplasty is
responsible for an increase in quality of life related to nasal obstruction when compared to
no intervention in rhinoseptoplasty inferior turbinate?
- Population: patients eligible for functional rhinoseptoplasty and / or aesthetic
- Intervention: surgery, turbinectomy of inferior turbinates
- Comparison: the absence of intervention in inferior turbinates
- Primary endpoint: Quality of life related to nasal obstruction
