OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence of nasal septal perforation (NSP) on CT imaging in an urban hospital setting.
METHODS
Facial bone CT scans from 3708 consecutive patients were reviewed for the presence of NSP. Size of the perforation was measured in two dimensions. Medical records were reviewed for possible risk factors.
RESULTS
The prevalence of NSP was 2.05%. The most common risk factor was a history of drug abuse. Cocaine was the most prevalent drug used.
CONCLUSION
The prevalence of NSP was more than double of that previously published, likely related to intranasal drug use in our urban population.
目的
确定城市医院环境中CT成像上鼻中隔穿孔（NSP）的患病率。
方法
回顾了3708例连续患者的面部骨CT扫描，以确定是否存在NSP。在两个维度上测量穿孔的大小。查阅病历以寻找可能的危险因素。
结果
NSP的患病率为2.05%。最常见的危险因素是药物滥用史。可卡因是使用最普遍的药物。
结论
NSP的患病率比之前公布的高出一倍多，这可能与我们城市人口中的鼻内药物使用有关。
