PURPOSE: Surgery for nasal airway obstruction (NAO) has a high failure rate, with up to 50% of patients reporting persistent symptoms postoperatively. Virtual surgery planning has the potential to improve surgical outcomes, but current manual methods are too labor-intensive to be adopted on a large scale. This manuscript introduces an automatic atlas-based approach for performing virtual septoplasties.
METHODS: A cohort of 47 healthy subjects and 26 NAO patients was investigated. An atlas of healthy nasal geometry was constructed. The automatic virtual septoplasty method consists of a multi-stage registration approach to fit the atlas to a target NAO patient, automatically segment the patient's septum and airway, and deform the patient image to have a non-deviated septum.
RESULTS: Our automatic virtual septoplasty method straightened the septum successfully in 18 out of 26 NAO patients (69% of cases). In these cases, the ratio of the higher to the lower airspace cross-sectional areas in the left and right nasal cavities improved from 1.47 ± 0.45 to 1.16 ± 0.33 in the region surrounding the septal deviation, showing that the nasal airway became more symmetric after virtual septoplasty.
CONCLUSION: This automated virtual septoplasty technique has the potential to greatly reduce the effort required to perform computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of nasal airflow for NAO surgical planning. Future studies are needed to investigate if virtual surgery planning using this method is predictive of subjective symptoms in NAO patients after septoplasty.
