ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

The application of transseptal suturing as an alternative to intranasal splints in preventing postoperative complications, such as synechia, and maintaining nasal septal stability following Septoplasty, remains controversial. This meta-analysis aims to systematically compare the effectiveness and safety of transseptal suturing with intranasal splints after Septoplasty.

METHODS:

A comprehensive systematic literature review based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was conducted. The review included randomized clinical trials (RCTs) identified through a database search in July 2023, comparing postoperative complications following Septoplasty with the transseptal suturing technique versus intranasal splints.

RESULTS:

Eight published RCTs involving 570 participants were included in the meta-analysis. The analysis revealed no significant difference between the transseptal suturing and intranasal splint techniques following Septoplasty in postoperative complications, including postoperative hemorrhage, synechia, septal hematoma, septal perforation, local infection, crusting, and residual septal deviation.

CONCLUSIONS:

Transseptal suturing can be applied following Septoplasty as an alternative to intranasal splints without increasing the rate of postoperative complications.
