Long-term functional outcomes and quality of life after oncologic surgery and microvascular reconstruction in patients with oral or oropharyngeal cancer.

abstract：CONCLUSION:MCT is a useful tool to pre-operatively determine whether internal nasal valve (INV) narrowing affects a nasal obstruction. Functional rhinoplasty seemed to produce better results than septoplasty in Asian patients with a nasal obstruction, due to INV narrowing. OBJECTIVE:This study compared pre-operative m...
