Let-down technique, in which high septal strip resection is performed, and conventional rhinoplasty using autospreader flaps were compared regarding nasal functions with Nasal Obstruction Symptom Evaluation (NOSE) and Sinonasal Outcome Test-22 (SNOT-22) quality-of-life scale questionnaires. A total of 54 patients who were included in the study were divided into two groups: group 1 (autospreader group; = 27) and group 2 (let-down group; = 27). Open technical septorhinoplasty operation using an autospreader flap was performed in group 1. Let-down rhinoplasty was applied in group 2. NOSE and SNOT-22 scales were filled for the groups in the preoperative and postoperative periods and were compared. Postoperative values were found to be significantly lower than preoperative values in both groups ( < 0.001). When the groups were compared between, no significant difference was seen according to the scales ( > 0.05). There was also no significant difference between the groups regarding age and gender. Although there was no significant difference between the two techniques, both NOSE and SNOT-22 quality-of-life scales have shown improvement both in conventional rhinoplasty with autospreader flap and let-down technique.
对采用高位鼻中隔条切除术的降鼻技术和使用自体撑开片瓣的传统鼻整形术进行比较，通过鼻阻塞症状评估（NOSE）和鼻-鼻窦结局测试-22（SNOT-22）生活质量量表问卷来评估鼻功能。纳入该研究的54例患者被分为两组：第1组（自体撑开片瓣组；n = 27）和第2组（降鼻组；n = 27）。第1组采用使用自体撑开片瓣的开放式鼻中隔鼻整形手术。第2组采用降鼻整形术。在术前和术后阶段对两组患者进行NOSE和SNOT-22量表评分并进行比较。两组术后值均显著低于术前值（P < 0.001）。两组之间比较时，根据量表未发现显著差异（P > 0.05）。两组在年龄和性别方面也无显著差异。尽管两种技术之间没有显著差异，但NOSE和SNOT-22生活质量量表在使用自体撑开片瓣的传统鼻整形术和降鼻技术中均显示出改善。
