• #1 What becomes of the broken nose?

  https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3992096/

  Nasal fractures are the most common facial injury, frequently associated with aesthetic, functional and psychological complications. Closed reduction of fractured nasal bones is first line treatment commonly employed by Otolaryngologists and Plastic Surgeons, however some patients require open septorhinoplasty. […] Our study showed many discrepancies between findings documented at the time of clinic compared to at the time of theatre, particularly in relation to the nasal septum. If closed reduction of fractured nasal bones is conducted without addressing a septal fracture, the septum will in time move the nasal bones back towards their deviated position. […] Our results suggest that there is an increasing number of SIMONs within our society who are frequently unsatisfied with the result of cosmetic surgery or surgery following assault or injury. Furthermore factors such as status of the nasal septum and previous nasal injuries have to be considered if initial treatment is to be successful.
