| Abstract: | Objective: A nasal septal abscess after placement of a dental implant is seldom seen and is usually caused by an infection around the implant. A septal haematoma following dental implantation leading to septal abscess formation has never been reported. Methods and results: We present a case of a patient who developed a septal abscess after dental implantation without accompanying signs of infection around the implant. On the computed tomography scan we found the implant protruding the nasopalatine duct which led to bilateral septal hemorrhage, resulting in abscess formation. The patient underwent reconstructive nasal septum surgery, using an autologous auricular cartilage graft. This resulted in a good nasal function and cosmetic outcome. Conclusions: Medical health care professionals should be aware of a septal abscess in case of an acute blocked nose even without prior nasal or facial trauma or nasal surgery. Reconstruction of the septal nasal cartilage using autologous conchal cartilage is a good solution to preserve nasal function as well as tip support. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
