title: [A clinical evaluation on correction of the deviated nose and functional reconstructive nasal surgery].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore an effective method of correction of deviated nose and functional reconstructive nasal surgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  Among 102 patients 32 cases were treated by septoplasty only, 53 cases were corrected by bony pyramid, 3 cases with severe asymmetry of bony pyramid by wedge resection and 14 cases by the implant of the septal or rip cartilage.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The successful rate was 92.20% (92/102) with period of 6 to 24 months follow up.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Correcting the deviated nose to reconstruct its function with the intranasal approach and multiple techniques, can benefit both the cosmetology and nasal functional improvement. Rectifying the nasal septum, debonding the tissue of the deviated section completely, and fixing reconstructive structures are the keys for the successful result.
