Importance Nasal reconstruction after Mohs surgery is a unique challenge in that it must
satisfy both functional and aesthetic goals. Despite some advocacy in the literature for using …

The internal nasal valve is the narrowest point in the nasal airway and thus is the controlling
point that regulates inspiration flow. The cross-sectional area of the internal nasal valve is …

The nasal valve area is the functional area that allows airflow regulation. It could be divided
in an internal area and an external one, basing on the anatomical landmarks. Many …

Airflow through the nose is controlled by the interplay of many factors including the anatomy
of the septum and turbinates and the status of the mucosal lining. Airflow is also regulated by …

Knowledge of the structure and function of the nasal valve region is required by all who
operate on the nose. This article defines and classifies nasal valve region abnormalities; …

Septoplasty alone is not always sufficient to correct nasal obstruction. Various techniques
have been employed to repair nasal valve collapse and improve airflow. This article aimed …

Objective: To determine the efficacy of alar batten grafts for the correction of internal and
external nasal valve collapse. Design: In this retrospective study, a questionnaire was used …

Objectives To determine the cause of nasal valve obstruction in a series of patients requiring
surgical correction, to evaluate the efficacy of our surgical techniques, and to assess the …

Abstract Objectives/Hypothesis: To critically evaluate the surgical treatment strategies for
nasal valve collapse. Methods: A systematic review of studies to treat nasal valve collapse …

IN ITS SIMPLEST ANATOMI-cal definition, the nasal cavity may be viewed as a longitudinal
set of crosssectional area segments that act as resistors in series, with the overall resistance …
