Nasal fracture manipulation: a comparative study of general and local anaesthesia techniques.
Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences 2003 October
Nasal injuries are common conditions treated in either Otolaryngology or Plastic Surgical departments. Manipulation for deformity can be conducted in various ways. The aim of this study is to determine if the anaesthetic technique used for manipulation influences outcomes. Five hundred and fifty-five patients had either local anaesthetic (LA) or general anaesthetic (GA) nasal fracture manipulations in our departments over a 6-year period. Three hundred and twenty-four of these could be contacted and questioned as to subsequent surgical treatments received. Rhinoplasty, septorhinoplasty or septoplasty had been subsequently performed in 3.2% of the GA group and in 17.2% of the LA group (P < 0.0001). We recommend considering this result when treating nasal fractures in conjunction with other important issues of patient preference, financial costs, associated risks, morbidity and facilities available.
