- Ear InfectionsChildren who suffer from repeat ear infections or fluid in the ear may benefit from ear tubes. Ear tubes are small plastic inserts that are surgically placed in the eardrum usually under general anesthesia. The insertion of ear tubes can help allow air to enter the middle ear, allow fluid out of the ear, prevent future buildup of fluid and restore hearing.
- RhinoplastySeptoplasty is a surgical procedure to correct defects or deformities of the septum. The nasal septum is the structure between the two nostrils. It is composed of both cartilage and bone. The nasal septum has three functions: support the nose, regulate air flow, and support the mucous membranes of the nose. A number of medical conditions may indicate a need for the procedure including nasal air passage obstruction, a deviated septum, tumors, chronic and uncontrolled nosebleeds, or the presence of polyps, etc. Additionally, a septoplasty may be performed in conjunction with a rhinoplasty in order to ensure that the reshaping of the nose does not result in a reduction of the amount of breathing space.
