Endoscopic Septoplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to correct a deviated nasal septum — the wall between the two nasal passages — using an endoscope (a thin, flexible tube with a camera). This approach offers greater precision, less trauma, and quicker recovery compared to traditional methods.
Conventional Septoplasty – Performed without an endoscope, using open access.Endoscopic Septoplasty – Uses a nasal endoscope for enhanced visibility and accuracy; ideal for mild to moderate deviations or revision surgeries.Birth defects or congenital conditionsInjury or trauma to the nose (accidents, sports injuries)Uneven growth during childhoodNasal congestion, especially on one sideDifficulty breathing through the noseFrequent sinus infectionsNosebleedsSnoring or sleep disturbancesFacial pain or pressureEndoscopic Septoplasty is performed under local or general anesthesia. The surgeon corrects the deviated septum internally using small tools and an endoscope, with no visible cuts or scars. The procedure typically lasts 30–60 minutes, and patients usually go home the same day.
While not all cases are preventable (especially congenital ones), you can reduce the risk of septal deviation by:
Wearing protective gear during contact sportsAvoiding trauma to the noseSeeking early treatment for nasal fractures or injuriesImproved nasal breathingReduced snoring and better sleepFewer sinus infections and headachesFaster healing with minimal discomfortNo external scars
