title: Reopening of the closed nostril in atrophic rhinitis.
abstract: Closure of the nostril in atrophic rhinitis is a simple operation. Opening the obturated nose by excising the obturator membrane very often causes stenosis. A new and effective method for opening the nostrils, by means of flaps, is suggested.
