Nasal obstruction is one of the most common complaints in the otolaryngology clinic. It can be a complex problem and may be multifactorial. Nasal valve dysfunction can be a cause of nasal obstruction, particularly in patients who have undergone previous reduction rhinoplasty. The exact site of the nasal valve is contentious and is frequently subdivided into the internal and external nasal valves. Accurate assessment is crucial for correct diagnosis and management planning. Various surgical and non-surgical techniques for addressing the problem of nasal valve collapse have been described in the literature. The choice of technique will depend on the causative pathology, availability of graft material, surgical experience and patient preference.
