Impact of Septoplasty on Mean Platelet Volume Levels in Patients with Nasal Septal Deviation
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 4
Abstract
Objective: Septal deviation being one of the common nasal pathology has strong association with chronic alveolar hypoxia. Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) is a widely used marker for chronic hypoxia. This study aims at establishing a relation between septal deviation and Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) and its effect on surgical correction of deviated septum. Materials and Methods: Ninety-eight patients with symptomatic nasal septal deviation were enrolled for the study and operated. Pre-operative and post-operative Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) was noted .Comparative multivariate analyses between indicator factors and septal deviation were conducted. Results: The pre-operative Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) levels of the patients who underwent septal surgery were significantly higher than the post operative Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) levels. Conclusion: As a conclusion, Mean Platelet Volume (MPV) may be a helpful marker for ENT surgeons to evaluate Deviated Nasal Septum, which may cause chronic hypoxic complication.
