Septal perforation repair remains technically challenging, particularly in defects requiring stable graft support for closure.

Results

of patients had their nose septum holes fully healed after repair

More results

We describe an endoscopic double-layer fascia lata technique and report surgical outcomes in a consecutive case series.

A fascia lata graft harvested from the thigh was folded to create a double-layer construct and secured with an absorbable suture.

More results

The graft was placed beneath the elevated mucoperichondrial flap and stabilized with bilateral splints for approximately 3 weeks.
