Mucoperichondrial flap in septoplasty is made on

In cases of deted septum, make a slightly curvilinear incision, 2-3 mm above the caudal end of septal cailage on the concave side (Killian's incision). In case of caudal dislocation, a transfixion or hemitransfixion (Freer's) incision is made. The latter is septocolumellar incision between caudal end of septal cailage and columella. Raise mucoperichondrial or mucoperiosteal flap on one side only. Separate septal cailage from the vomer and ethmoid plate and raise mucoperiosteal flap on the opposite side of septum.
