AIM: Nasal fractures are commonly treated by primary closed reduction. However, studies suggest this produces unacceptable functional and aesthetic results. Many patients require revision surgery. We aimed to assess patient satisfaction following closed reduction of nasal fractures.
METHODS: Retrospective chart review of patients with nasal fractures treated by closed reduction at the Wellington Regional Plastic, Maxillofacial and Burns Unit, New Zealand over a 2-year period was undertaken. Digital manipulation under general anaesthetic was performed. Patients were followed-up by telephone with a structured interview.
RESULTS: Of 116 consecutive patients, 74 (65%) were successfully contacted. 65 (88%) were satisfied with functional outcome, and 64 (86%) with aesthetic outcome. Of the 34 patients reporting incomplete correction, 12 (35%) would consider revision surgery.
CONCLUSION: Patients treated with closed reduction of nasal fracture performed under general anaesthetic with digital manipulation reported high levels of satisfaction with functional and aesthetic outcomes. Revision rate is low.
