Abstract
Background: Patient satisfaction is an important indicator of surgical outcome, so the quality of life is crucial in a patient undergoing septorhinoplasty. In the present study, we have prospectively evaluated the quality of life concerning functional and aesthetic outcomes after septorhinoplasty.
Materials and methods: This prospective study, included 50 patients who underwent septorhinoplasty for functional and aesthetic symptoms from March 2021 to February 2024. The quality of life concerned with functional and aesthetic outcomes were evaluated at the end of 6 and 12 months after the surgery.
Results: There was a significant improvement in both functional (VAS, NOSE, FROI-17) and aesthetic outcome questionaries in patients undergoing septorhinoplasty (p < 0.05); there was a strong correlation between the age of the patients, the presenting complaints and functional quality of life. Again, a strong correlation was found between the complication rate and aesthetic quality of life (p < 0.05).
Conclusion: Although septorhinoplasty is a complex surgery, it can ensure significant improvement in the quality of life of a patient. Our study showed a strong correlation of age, presenting complaints, and complication rate with the functional and aesthetic quality of life.
Level of evidence iv: This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article. For a full description of these Evidence-Based Medicine ratings, please refer to the Table of Contents or the online Instructions to Authors www.springer.com/00266 .
期刊介绍：
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is a publication of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and the official journal of the European Association of Societies of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (EASAPS), Società Italiana di Chirurgia Plastica Ricostruttiva ed Estetica (SICPRE), Vereinigung der Deutschen Aesthetisch Plastischen Chirurgen (VDAPC), the Romanian Aesthetic Surgery Society (RASS), Asociación Española de Cirugía Estética Plástica (AECEP), La Sociedad Argentina de Cirugía Plástica, Estética y Reparadora (SACPER), the Rhinoplasty Society of Europe (RSE), the Iranian Society of Plastic and Aesthetic Surgeons (ISPAS), the Singapore Association of Plastic Surgeons (SAPS), the Australasian Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (ASAPS), the Egyptian Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons (ESPRS), and the Sociedad Chilena de Cirugía Plástica, Reconstructiva y Estética (SCCP).
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery provides a forum for original articles advancing the art of aesthetic plastic surgery. Many describe surgical craftsmanship; others deal with complications in surgical procedures and methods by which to treat or avoid them. Coverage includes "second thoughts" on established techniques, which might be abandoned, modified, or improved. Also included are case histories; improvements in surgical instruments, pharmaceuticals, and operating room equipment; and discussions of problems such as the role of psychosocial factors in the doctor-patient and the patient-public interrelationships.
Aesthetic Plastic Surgery is covered in Current Contents/Clinical Medicine, SciSearch, Research Alert, Index Medicus-Medline, and Excerpta Medica/Embase.
