Summary

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the utility of porcine small intestinal submucosa (SIS) as a graft material that may aid in the natural healing process of freshly exposed bone and cartilage in the nasal cavity.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Elective transnasal endoscopic skull base surgery where closure with a large nasoseptal flap (NSF) is anticipated (exposure of >75% of the ipsilateral nasal septum bone/cartilage)
  • Patients without nutritional compromise or otherwise debilitated
  • Patients who are able to consent for themselves

Exclusion Criteria

  • Bilateral nasoseptal flap (NSF) placement in the same operative setting
  • Patients without significant bone/cartilage exposure to incorporate an intact 2x3 cm graft
  • Patients requiring 24 hour supplemental oxygen via nasal cannula
  • Patients who cannot consent for themselves
