Alternative for SMR –
Correct Answer: Septoplasty
Description: Septoplasty
Septoplasty is a conservative approach to septal surgery; as much of the septal framework as possible is retained.
Muco-perichondrial/periosteal flap is generally raised only on one side.
This operation has almost replaced the SMR operation.
It can be done in adults as well as in children (in contrast to SMR, which is done only after 17 years).
