Abstract
A prospective study was performed on 106 patients undergoing routine nasal surgery to compare the influence of three different packing methods on the final outcome. Pneumatic balloons were found to cause persistent nasal obstruction and an increased incidence of adhesion formation, while lubricated ribbon gauze was more uncomfortable for the patient. Glove finger packs were associated with the least problems.Entities:
