Video Summary
In septoplasty, the initial step is identifying the anterior septal angle, termed the "gateway to the nose." The surgeon undermines the dorsal perichondrium and releases the upper lateral cartilage. Using precise instruments, they elevate the mucoperichondrium for proper dissection. The procedure involves dorsal and caudal reductions, ensuring preservation of the L-strut of 10-12 millimeters to maintain nasal structure. The process involves using sharp tools to remove cartilage and bone while avoiding stress risers. After elevating the mucoperichondrium, attention is given to removing any osseous or cartilaginous spurs to achieve the desired nasal anatomy.
