Abstract
Since 1975, 210 patients have been operated for nasal valvular obstruc tion. A dorsonasal approach was chosen, allowing direct control of the correction with peroperative patient cooperation. The analysis of the results shows a complete relief of the airflow impairment and a very acceptable scar in nearly three-quarters of the patients.
