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
“The safety and efficacy of extracorporeal septoplasty (ECS) has long been debated. Our objective was to determine this technique's functional and aesthetic outcomes and complications through a systematic review of the literature. Data Sources: PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were…”

Septum, valve and airway
Every rhinoplasty is a breathing operation whether it intends to be or not: the septum holds the nose up as well as dividing it, and the narrowest part of the whole airway is the internal valve the surgeon is standing over.
Outcomes, satisfaction and psychology
Rhinoplasty is measured with ten different questionnaires, none of which covers both the way the nose looks and the way it breathes, and the best-developed one has no airway questions at all.
Anatomy and nasal analysis
Before any technique is chosen, the nose has to be read: the bone measured, the cartilage counted, the skin assessed, and the result the patient wants agreed on a photograph that is not yet true.
