Intranasal adhesions which recur despite splinting: an ominous sign?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 June 2007
Abstract
Intranasal adhesions are a common complication following nasal surgery. They may be prevented by the use of silastic splints, which are also a very effective treatment for established lesions. We report a patient where intranasal adhesions rapidly recurred despite the use of splints, who was found to be suffering from Wegener's granulomatosis.
