Therefore, prevention of this unwanted outcome is very important and removes surgeon’s anxieties.</jats:p></jats:list-item> <jats:list-item><jats:p>This article describes a simple technique during septoplasty to prevent the development of this serious complication.</jats:p></jats:list-item> <jats:list-item><jats:p>In this surgical technique, the dislocated nasal septum is lifted and stabilised with a temporary traction suture. This traction suture holds the mobile septal cartilage in the proper position to restore and support the nasal dorsum and provides it with a normal contour.</jats:p></jats:list-item> <jats:list-item><jats:p>The advantages of this technique are that it is (i) easy to perform, (ii) not time‐consuming, (iii) is less traumatic compared to other methods, (iv) is comfortable for the patient and (v) provides long‐term stability.</jats:p></jats:list-item> </jats:list> </jats:p>
