title: [An original technique of determination of the form and fixation of septal stents].
abstract: The authors consider the problems of fixation of the operated nasal septum, show shortcomings of present-day oval septal stents and technique of stent fixation, for the first time describe vector CT-anatomy of the zone of surgical intervention on the nasal septum basing on 67 computer reformations of the nasal septum and lateral nasal wall, propose optimal shape of the intranasal stent and a reliable technique of septal stent fixation to the nasal septum. The analysis of stenting of the nasal septum in 42 patients after septoplasty has shown that an original stent and a method of its fixation completely meet the requirements for septal stents.
