Abstract

Keypoints * Septoplasties can be performed under local anaesthesia. However, careful prevention and treatment of pain during the operation is essential. * Septoplasties are suitable operations for short-stay surgery. * Two-years post-operative, septoplasty relieved the symptoms well or excellently in 55% and moderately in 27% of the cases. * Specialists prescribe more prophylactic antibiotics than residents (47%versus 29%P = 0.02). * Post-operative antibiotics do not appear to prevent the development of post-operative infections.
