Accurate and Specific Measuring Grid for Otorhinolaryngological Surgeries

AbstractMost of the ENT surgeries (tympanoplasty, rhinoplasty, ossiculoplasty, septoplasty) involve the reconstruction and the functional correction of the respective structures involved. Success of otorhinolaryngological surgeries depends on accurate measurements and precision in judgement. There is need to develop simple tools for measurements which are easy to procure, accurate and simple to handle. Every surgeon needs unique tools to accomplish such an outcome. In order to tackle this difficulty and to ease the learning process in ENT surgeries, we have developed an accurate specific measurement grid.
