동종 대퇴근막 삽입을 통해 치유한 비중격 천공 1예

Nasal septal perforation is a rare disease mainly caused by nasal septal surgery and trauma, and is considered as challenging and difficult problem. Closure with intranasal flaps and connective tissue interposition graft has been widely recommended to nasal septal perforation, but the surgical technique can be differed by perforation size and anatomy. Connective tissue autograft has been commonly used as interposition graft, but allograft can be a substitution and choosing adequate allograft material is important for successful reconstruction. This case report presents a 54 year old man with nasal septal perforation, which was repaired by insertion of homologous fascia lata without intranasal flap. (J Clinical Otolaryngol 2015;26:268-272)
