Abstract
A comparative prospective clinical study was conducted at Dr. D. Y. Patil Medical College Hospital and Research Institute, Kolhapur from June 2015 to June 2017. The aim was to determine the Effect of Septoplasty on Quality of life in patients of Allergic Rhinitis with Deviated nasal septum. Total 100 cases were studied, out of which 50 underwent septoplasty along with conservative treatment (study group) and 50 were treated by conservative treatment only (control group). Both groups were given a questionnaire in the beginning and at the end of three months. After analyzing the results, we conclude that septoplasty significantly improves the quality of life and hence should be considered along with conservative treatment in patients of Allergic Rhinitis with Deviated Nasal Septum.
