About this study

A retrospective study was conducted on 343 patients aged 13 years and above. Two investigators, each with 3 to 4 years of experience in the field of radiology, evaluated computed tomography scans of the paranasal sinuses and the head of these patients. The nasal septum was evaluated for degree and types of variants. Various variants of nasal cavities and nasal septum were also evaluated.

Primary outcomes

  1. Prevalence of variants of Nasal septum

    Time frame: 6 months

    Prevalence of deviated nasal septum will be calculated. Among those with nasal septum deviation, frequency of deviation to right, left and S shaped nasal septum will be evaluated. Nasal septal deviation angle will be measured and grading will be done.

  2. Prevalence of variants of nasal cavity

    Time frame: 6 months

    Prevalence of variants of nasal cavities like hypertrophied turbinate, paradoxical turbinate, concha bullosa, lamellar concha will be obtained.
