lthough septoplasty may be considered the commonest nasal procedure done, still recurrence of anterior
septal deviation is often a problem facing rhinology surgeons. Recurrent anterior septal deviation is said
to be either due to memory cells, resilience of the cartilage and/or unstable caudal end of the septum. In this
study author aimed at fixing the caudal end of the septum between the medial crurae of the lower lateral car-
tilages after retrograde dissection followed by tongue in groove fixation using absorbable sutures. In the ma-
jority of cases the septum was maintained in the mid line without recurrent postoperative deviation together
with optimal tip projection and rotation.
