The cause of nasal obstruction can often be attributed to pathologic conditions of the nasal valve. The key physical examination finding in nasal valve compromise is inspiratory collapse of the nasal sidewall. Validated subjective and objective measures evaluating nasal obstruction exist, although with weak correlation. Functional rhinoplasty encompasses the surgical techniques used to address obstruction occurring in this area. These techniques aim to increase the size of the nasal valve opening and/or strengthen the lateral nasal wall and nasal ala, preventing dynamic collapse. Much of the supporting evidence for functional rhinoplasty consists of observational studies that are universally favorable.
鼻阻塞的原因通常可归因于鼻瓣的病理状况。鼻瓣受损的关键体格检查发现是鼻侧壁吸气时塌陷。虽然相关性较弱，但存在评估鼻阻塞的经过验证的主观和客观测量方法。功能性鼻整形术包括用于解决该区域发生的阻塞的手术技术。这些技术旨在扩大鼻瓣开口的大小和/或加强鼻侧壁和鼻翼，防止动态塌陷。功能性鼻整形术的许多支持证据来自普遍有利的观察性研究。
