Özet
Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of the cross-spreader graft technique (CSGT) in an I-shaped crooked nose surgery. Study Design: Retrospective observational study. Place and Duration of the Study: Department of Otorhinolaryngology, University of Health Sciences Gazi Yasargil Training and Research Hospital, Diyarbakir, Turkiye, from 2022 to 2024. Methodology: Patients with I-shaped crooked noses operated using the CSGT were included. Their demographic and clinical data were recorded. The Standardised Cosmesis and Health Nasal Outcomes Survey (SCHNOS) was used to evaluate patient satisfaction after surgery. The Wilcoxon test was used to compare pre- and postoperative data. Results: A total of 42 patients (16 males and 26 females, median (IQR) aged 26.0 (8.5) years) who underwent I-shaped crooked nose correction procedure were analysed. Compared to preoperative scores, postoperative scores showed a highly significant decrease in all SCHNOS divisions, including function, appearance, and overall satisfaction (p <0.001). Conclusion: This study showed that the CSGT is an effective procedure for the correction of I-shaped crooked noses.
