New method for closing a hole in the nasal septum
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.

This study compares two ways of using cartilage from inside the nose to fix a droopy or uneven nasal tip during rhinoplasty (nose reshaping). It may help people who want cosmetic improvement of their nose tip.
This trial tests a new way to close a hole between the mouth and sinus using two layers of tissue from inside the cheek and roof of the mouth. It may help people who have this problem for the first time.
This study compares two ways of straightening a crooked nasal septum (the wall inside your nose) to help you breathe better. It tests a newer method against the standard surgical approach.
This trial tests whether adding a special gel made from your own blood, called platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), to standard nose surgery for a deviated septum helps you heal faster and with less discomfort.
This trial compares two types of surgery to fix a crooked nasal septum (the wall inside your nose) that causes ongoing nasal blockage. One surgery only fixes the septum, the other also reduces the size of the turbinates (small structures inside the nose that help filter air). The goal is to see which approach works better for breathing.
