2.5 Replacing the right septal mucosal flap and dressings
At the end of the operation, the lateralized intact mucoperichondrial
flap is moved back to the midline (Figure 4a). We do not suture the
incision line. We insert a small resorbable dressing (eg: Nasopore)
wedged at the top of the nasal cavity adjacent to the incision site to
ensure flap do not lateralise and allows end to end contact at the
incision. Alternatively, tissue glue can be used to “stick” the
incision back together.
