Septal deviation is one of the most frequent causes of nasal obstruction. Septal deviation may result from trauma, congenital malformations, or age-related changes, and symptoms include impaired nasal airflow, snoring, and poor sleep quality.

Careful patient selection and preoperative evaluation are key to optimizing surgical outcomes as argued in this review.
