The standard treatment in ENT and plastic surgical departments of a fractured nose is closed manipulation. Two recent retrospective studies have cast doubt on the value of this manoeuvre. This review of 70 patients between one and three years following injury shows that only 26% had a normal appearance and 48% had normal function. The presence of a septal fracture is of prime importance in determining the outcome.
