The ideal procedure to correct nasal obstruction in persons with external nasal deformity by comparing two techniques of rhinoplasty i.e. open technique and endoscopic technique is of interest. Hence, a prospective study was done for a period of one and half year and a total of 50 patients who underwent rhinoplasty procedures with various pathologies were evaluated. The most common pathology identified was deviated nasal septum (DNS) with external deformity and the most common symptom was nasal obstruction. Endonasal/closed technique was done in Group A and Group B patients underwent open rhinoplasty technique, with septal cartilage being the most commonly used graft in both the techniques. Both external and closed techniques are giving almost equal results in both functional and aesthetic aspects with minimal complications and the outcome was highly depended on the skillset of the surgeon.
通过比较两种鼻整形技术（即开放式技术和内窥镜技术）来纠正伴有鼻外部畸形的患者的鼻塞的理想手术方法备受关注。因此，进行了一项为期一年半的前瞻性研究，对总共50例接受了各种病理状况鼻整形手术的患者进行了评估。确定的最常见病理是伴有外部畸形的鼻中隔偏曲（DNS），最常见症状是鼻塞。A组采用鼻内/闭合技术，B组患者接受开放式鼻整形技术，两种技术中最常用的移植物均为鼻中隔软骨。开放式和闭合式技术在功能和美学方面都能产生几乎相同的效果，并发症最少，结果高度依赖于外科医生的技术水平。
