Ambrus et al define a nasal septal abscess as a collection of pus between the bony or cartilaginous septum and its overlying mucoperiosteum or mucoperichondrium.
The patient was not returned to the operating room for a resection of the mucoperichondrium once the diagnosis of a low-grade tumor was confirmed.
If cartilage remains in the septum posterior to the perforation, the proposed new surgical procedure will preserve the blood supply from the sphenopalatine artery to the mucoperichondrium and then to the attached underlying cartilage.
