Brief summary
Research Question: Performing partial turbinectomy associated with rhinoseptoplasty is responsible for an increase in quality of life related to nasal obstruction when compared to no intervention in rhinoseptoplasty inferior turbinate? * Population: patients eligible for functional rhinoseptoplasty and / or aesthetic * Intervention: surgery, turbinectomy of inferior turbinates * Comparison: the absence of intervention in inferior turbinates * Primary endpoint: Quality of life related to nasal obstruction
Interventions
PROCEDURERhinoseptoplasty
Rhinoseptoplasty without turbinectomy procedure
PROCEDUREPartial turbinectomy
After medial dislocation of the inferior turbinate, proceed partial resection of the inferior turbinate in all its inferior extension in range. Possible bleeding is cauterized.
PROCEDUREEndoscopic partial turbinectomy
Endoscopy to medial dislocation of the inferior turbinate with instrument

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quality of life related to nasal obstruction | 3 months | Quality of life will be evaluated by the WHOQOL-BREF instrument, that comprises 26 items, which measure the following broad domains: physical health, psychological health, social relationships, and environment. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Nasal Rhinorrhea | 3 MONTHS | At 90 posoperative day patients were asked if they had nasal rhinorrhea for more than one hour a day on most days, or not. |
| Nasal Pruritis | 3 MONTHS | At 90 posoperative day patients were asked if they had nasal pruritis for more than one hour a day on most days, or not. |
| Nasal sneezing | 3 MONTHS | At 90 posoperative day patients were asked if they had nasal sneezing for more than one hour a day on most days, or not. |
| Topical Nasal Corticosteroids | 3 MONTHS | At 90 posoperative day patients were asked if they were using topic nasal corticosteroids or not |
| Oral antihistamine | 3 months | At 90 posoperative day patients were asked if they had used oral antihistamine in the past 30 days or not |
| Allergic Conjunctivitis | 3 months | At 90 posoperative day patients were asked if they had allergic conjunctivitis for more than one hour a day on most days, or not. |
