The impact of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) on olfactory function and pain after septoplasty operations

TL;DR: The application of PRF to the mucosal surface after the completion of septoplasty, has positive effect on olfactory function and pain especially in the early postoperative period.

Ortho- and retronasal olfactory performance in rhinosurgical procedures: a longitudinal comparative study.

TL;DR: Assessment of olfactory function in patients undergoing rhinosurgical procedures in a comparative manner and evaluating relations to patient-reported outcome measurements (PROMs) adds to the current literature on olfaction in rhinosurgery with the extension of retronasal testing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Change in olfactory function after septoplasty. A systematic review and meta-analysis.

TL;DR: Septoplasty seems to improve olfactory function, however, the outcome of this intervention is discrete and not equal for all patients, so further randomized trials are needed to confirm current findings.

Septorhinoplasty and the Late Impact on Olfactory Function: A Review and Meta-analysis

TL;DR: In this paper , a comprehensive review and meta-analysis were employed to assess the effect of nasal surgery on olfactory function (OF) after late post-operative OF, using objective instruments to quantify OF before and after surgery.

Measuring patient benefit from otorhinolaryngological surgery and therapy.

TL;DR: The Glasgow Benefit Inventory is an 18-item, postintervention questionnaire intended to be given to patients to fill in at home or in the outpatient clinic that is sensitive to the different ORL interventions, yet is sufficiently general to enable comparison between each pair of interventions.
