“…One article was identified from citation searching. Eventually, 28 articles were included in the qualitative analysis, as conformed to the aforementioned eligibility criteria, and all of them were used to calculate the best‐evidence regarding septoplasty outcomes evaluated using the NOSE score 29–56 . The reasons justifying the exclusion of 55 studies are reported in Figure 1.…”

ObjectiveSeptoplasty is the most frequently performed ENT surgery to correct nasal septal deviation (NSD). The present study aimed to quantify the effectiveness of septoplasty with or without turbinate surgery according to NOSE questionnaire scores, with the hypothesis that it is able to clinically improve patient‐reported nasal obstructive symptoms in the post‐operative follow‐up.MethodsAn electronic search was performed on PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library. The primary outcome was the change in NOSE score at 6 months after surgery. It was assessed with the mean difference (MD) between baseline and postoperative results.ResultsA total of 2577 patients (males: 65.1%, 95% CI: 59.9–70.2) with a mean age of 33.3 years (n = 1456, 95% CI: 30.4–36.2) were included in this meta‐analysis. The pooled baseline NOSE mean score was 68.1 (n = 2577, 95% CI: 64.3–71.9). The pooled MD in NOSE score at 6‐months follow‐up compared to baseline was −48.8 (n = 1730, 95% CI: −54.6 to −42.9).ConclusionsFunctional septoplasty with or without turbinate surgery shows a critical improvement of obstructive symptoms and quality of life according to the validated NOSE score.Level of EvidenceNA Laryngoscope, 2023

“…The Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology published a clinically very relevant article from Mehel et al, entitled “Early clinical outcomes of inferior turbinate radiofrequency and lateralization combined with septoplasty”. 1 We would like to voice a few concerns about the scientific inaccuracies of the article, contributing to the clinical soundness of the investigated topic.…”
