Negative pressure pulmonary edema: A rare complication of septorhinoplasty and a report of two cases
Negative pressure pulmonary edema (NPPE) develops when a patient makes a forced inspiration against a closed upper airway resulting in transudation of pulmonary capillary fluid into the interstitium. Young, healthy athletic males are more susceptible to this complication, and NPPE is most frequently...

Young, healthy athletic males are more susceptible to this complication, and NPPE is most frequently encountered during oral and maxillofacial surgeries. Patients who have undergone septorhinoplasty surgery have a significant risk for NPPE, unlike other cosmetic surgeries.

An early diagnosis of NPPE is very important, and patient recovery is quick when an early diagnosis is made.http://www.turkjplastsurg.org/article.asp?issn=1300-6878;year=2021;volume=29;issue=2;spage=139;epage=142;aulast=Uslularyngospasmnegative pressure pulmonary edemaseptorhinoplasty |
