Özet

Objective: The main aim is to discuss the effect of nasal septal deviation on the postoperative hearing results of patients with tympanosclerosis. Material and Methods: We analyzed the hearing results of patients with tympanosclerosis who were operated on in a tertiary center. Pure tone audiometric results were compared according to the existence of nasal septal deviation. Results: This study included 48 patients with unilateral tympanosclerosis disease. Moderate or severe septal deviation had no significant effect on postoperative hearing results. Conclusion: The nasal septal deviation as the only pathologic factor in patients with tympanosclerosis did not have a deteriorating effect after surgery.
