Ten patients with atrophic rhinitis were treated surgically with silastic implants. The details and principles of the surgical technique are emphasized. These patients have been observed for up to nine years. They all improved, with 70 per cent of them showing a "marked improvement" and the remaining 30 per cent showing a satisfactory one.
