title: Nasal fractures.
abstract: Although diagnosis and treatment of acute nasal fractures are usually relatively simple, they often go undiagnosed and untreated because of frequent dependence on the reports of facial-bone X-rays taken through the emergency room. A routine method of managing displaced nasal fractures has given excellent results with almost no complications. This techiniqe, along with our approach to the managemnet of healed nasal fracture deformities, is presented. Salient statistical information regarding etiology, associated injuries, and complications included.
