Abstract
The findings of this study indicate that simultaneous management of the maxillary jaw deformity (Le Fort I osteotomy) and intranasal pathology (septoplasty and reduction of inferior turbinates) were effective for the symptomatic relief of nasal airway obstruction. The complication rate for the intranasal procedures completed simultaneously with a Le Fort I osteotomy was minimal and not dissimilar to the rates reported for each procedure performed as an isolated event.
