A hierarchical stepwise approach to evaluate nasal patency after virtual surgery for nasal airway obstruction

Despite advances in medicine and expenditures associated in treatment of nasal airway obstruction, 25–50% of patients undergoing nasal surgeries complain of persistent obstructive symptoms. Our objective is to develop a “stepwise virtual surgery” method that optimizes surgical outcomes for treatment...
