Abstract

This article presents the characteristics of changes in the hearing and cerebral hemadynamics of patients with deviation of the nasal septum. The deviation of the nasal septum occurs in the cartilaginous and bone regions, both separately and in both at the same time. Deformations can be of a different nature (bend, crest, spike) and localization. They are one and two-sided. Spines and ridges are more often localized at the junction of the quadrangular cartilage and the perpendicular plate, ploughshare, and the crest of the upper jaw (“growth zone”). Less often, the upper sections of the perpendicular plate and the rear section of the ploughshare are deformed. For traumatic deformities, characteristic bends with sharp angles. Often, after injury, the anterior edge of the quadrilateral cartilage is displaced in the form of its subluxation. The deformation of the cartilaginous part of the external nose in the patients under our supervision was due to the deviation of the nasal septum. There were no patients with deformity of the nose, who would have been indicated for surgical intervention on the cartilage of the external nose, in our group.

Highlights

  • The nasal septum has an impact on the formation of normal air aerodynamics [1,2]

  • EVALUATION OF RESULTS The results of the conducted studies indicate that when examining patients with pathology of the nasal cavity, primarily with deviation of the nasal septum, it is imperative to pay attention to the quantitative indicators of tympanometry, which will make it possible to identify in them certain changes in the middle ear system in the early stages and timely take adequate medical and preventive measures

  • It can be concluded that the main cause of cerebral hemodynamic disorders is not a history of nasal trauma, but difficulty in nasal breathing and reflex changes in the body caused by deformation of the nasal septum

Summary

Introduction

The nasal septum has an impact on the formation of normal air aerodynamics [1,2]. A change in the latter leads to the development of pathological processes in the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses [3]. The leading role in the regulation of air distribution through the nose belongs to the nasal valve, the cavernous tissue of the turbinates and the nasal septum [4,5,6,7]. The deviation of the nasal septum affects the direction of both inhaled and exhaled air. With deformation of the nasal septum, normal breathing is absent for a long time (months and years), which causes chronic hypoxia, which has negative consequences during the growth and development of the body [8,9]
