[Rhinoplasty using controlled hypotension].

Abstract

Hypotension, induced by NNP during simultaneous artificial respiration in intubated patients, has proved its usefulness, especially in plastic surgery of the nose and nasal septum. NNP has shown to be a hypotensive medicament, which is easy to control and in which no secondary effects have been demonstrated. The controlled hypotension with NNP requests an experienced anaesthesist and a careful examination and supervision of the patient.
