New method for closing a hole in the nasal septum
Part of Ear, nose & throat, Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new way to close a hole in the nasal septum (the wall inside your nose) during surgery. It may be a better option for people who need this repair.

Who can take part
- You are planning to have surgery to fix a hole in the wall between your nostrils (nasal septal perforation).
- You are not allergic to a material called polycaprolactone (used in some medical products).

This trial tests different methods to reduce complications after septoplasty, a surgery to fix a crooked nasal septum. It may help if you have a deviated septum that causes symptoms like trouble breathing.
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 a newer, less invasive type of nose surgery (disarticulation septoplasty) to the traditional open approach for fixing a crooked nasal septum that causes breathing problems. It wants to see which method works better.
This trial tests if using a polyglycolic acid mesh during endoscopic nasal surgery for pituitary tumors can help prevent cerebrospinal fluid leakage. This may reduce the risk of complications after surgery.
This trial tests a new nasal conformer (a small device placed in the nose after surgery) to see if it helps children who are having cleft lip repair or surgery to release nasal scarring. It may improve healing and nose shape.
This study tests whether combining a routine nose surgery (septoplasty) with an additional procedure improves breathing better than septoplasty alone. It may be a good fit if you have a crooked septum or nasal congestion that isn't caused by other conditions.
