Twenty-eight patients with nasal obstruction due to vasomotor rhinitis were assessed using anterior rhinomanometry before and six weeks after the operation of out-fracture and amputation of the posterior ends of the inferior turbinates. It was found that the operation did not significantly improve the nasal airway. Though just over half the patients had an objective improvement in nasal airflow, only half of this group reported a subjective improvement in their symptoms.
对28例因血管运动性鼻炎导致鼻塞的患者，在进行下鼻甲后端外折和切除术之前及术后六周，使用前鼻测压法进行评估。结果发现，该手术并未显著改善鼻气道。尽管略超过半数的患者鼻气流有客观改善，但该组中只有一半的患者主观感觉症状有所改善。
