Twentytwo patients with deviation of nasal septum were treated by modified septorhinoplasty. The main points in the modification were:(1) The incision was curved instead of "L" shaped. It would avoid the disadvantage of having tension on the suture line and poor exposure;(2) Using triangle osteotomy to correct deviation of nasal septum, it was less traumatic and lessbleeding and better correction. The results from followup were as follows:18 good and 4 fair. The techniques and advantages of the modified procedure were discussed.
