Abstract
Objective: To evaluate a technique for Closure of large Septal Perforation (SP) by Split-Thickness Skin Graft and Cartilage.
Methods: In this prospective study carried out from March 2000 to March 2005, 15 patients with large SP ( 2cm2) underwent closure of SP with split thickness skin graft and cartilage. Results: The most common symptoms were nasal obstruction (66.7%) and crusts (46.7%). In our technique, the success rate of closure was 86.7%. In two patients, closure was incomplete which was thought to be due their old age and long duration of SP.
Conclusions: Our technique is easy, with good exposure, high success rate and is low in cost. We recommend this technique for perforation 2cm2. (Rawal Med J 2008;33:176-178).

Key words: Septal perforation, sub-mcousal resection, concheal cartilage, skin Graft
