[Clinical and morphological parallels in combined deformations of the nose].
Analysis of clinical characteristics of 56 patients with combined deformations of the nose and morphological (histological and histochemical) changes in the nasal septal cartilage in 20 patients showed that common nasal deformations are complicated with age, impeding nasal respiration. The intensity of dystrophic changes in chondrocytes and intercellular cartilaginous matrix depends on the duration of posttraumatic or congenital deformation but not on its clinical severity. This necessitates earlier interventions, before the development of pronounced deformation of the whole nose and deterioration of nasal respiration.
