| description | Epistaxis is one of the common presenting symptoms of patients with hereditary
haemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). Majority of patients required blood transfusion
due to intractable nasal bleeding. Septodermoplasty is an effective treatment for
HHT, however it gives rise to persistent nasal crusting and foul smelling nasal
discharge post surgery. We present an endoscopic septomucoplasty using buccal
mucosa graft as an alternative technique to septodermoplasty. |
