Case description

Significant nasal septum deviation (DNS) may be complicated by epistaxis, crusting and sinusitis. After watching this video you will be able to identify deviated nasal septum. This video presents a deviated nasal septum to the left with septal spur, and presence of sinusitis as evidenced by abnormal middle meatus appearance and draining mucopus. Sinus hypoventilation due to loss of laminar air flow patterns may interfere with normal mucociliary function. Sinusitis changes involving the left maxillary sinus, anterior ethmoid air cells, and left frontal sinus with spared sphenoid sinus are visible in CT-scan.
