Nasal obstruction is commonly due to septal deviation, enlarged turbinate mucosa, enlarged bony turbinates, nasal valving or, occasionally, a ptotic nasal tip. Correct preoperative diagnosis using the algorithm presented will lead to the appropriate selection of treatment for the patient groups discussed. The same diagnostic system will help the surgeon avoid patients who are likely not to be helped by operative intervention.
鼻阻塞通常是由于鼻中隔偏曲、鼻甲黏膜肿大、骨性鼻甲肥大、鼻瓣区问题，或偶尔由鼻尖下垂引起。使用所提供的算法进行正确的术前诊断，将为所讨论的患者群体带来合适的治疗选择。同样的诊断系统将帮助外科医生避免选择那些手术干预可能无法改善症状的患者。
