Diagnostik og behandling af naesefraktur hos voksne
Sammanfattning
The risk of complications warrants treatment of most dislocated nasal fractures. Other injuries including other facial fractures and septal haematoma must be treated if present at the initial presentation. The usual
treatment for a simple nasal fracture is closed reduction in local anaesthesia after five to seven days. Complicated cases require open reduction in general anaesthesia. Later revision of the deviated nose may become
necessary in patients suffering from complications such as persistent nasal stenosis and/or deformity.
