title: [Replacement of nasal bone fracture under nasal endoscope].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the possibility of replacement of nasal bone fracture under nasal endoscope.
  
  
  METHODS
  Twenty-five cases suffered from nasal bone fracture were examined by nasal endoscope, had the nasal bone subside anesthetized, and were operated on replacement of nasal bone fracture in the recumbent position.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Twenty-five cases were observed nasal bone shift towards the back and 4 cases were accompanied by fracture of nasal septum. It had good effect of local anesthesia. We accurately placed the implement under nasal bone subside by direct view and cured the fracture of nasal septum at the same time.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  It is the advantage for replacement of nasal bone fracture under nasal endoscope to overall evaluate the state of nasal bone fracture, have good effect of anesthesia, replace accurately and make little injury in nasal cavity.
