Özet

Background: Nasal surgery is occasionally performed to correct traumatic nasal deformity. Septal cartilage is the main tissue to be corrected and is a graft source when needed. A risk in engrafting with cartilage is the possibility of resorption as a result of either necrosis or apoptosis. The authors evaluated the rate of apoptosis in deviated and straight cartilage to investigate the cause of resorption of cartilage tissue.
