Closed nasal reductions are the standard of care for displaced nasal bone fractures. Reduction should occur within 3 weeks of the initial injury, but after swelling has subsided. The success rate is 60-90% in uncomplicated cases, however 6-17% of patients will require a future septorhinoplasty.
This procedure was performed under general anesthesia.
