In the archive as a landmark paper: the core sweep runs 2011–2026, and this one is here because the history of rhinoplasty rests on it · cited on extracorporeal septoplasty.
From the abstract
“It is well recognized that the standard septoplasty approach, in patients with severe septal deformities, may be less than adequate to address all portions of the deviated septum. The extracorporeal septoplasty technique is an alternative to the other common approaches in these more severe cases. In this study, the…”
