Is Endotracheal Tube Use Mandatory in Patients Undergoing Nasal Septum Surgery?

The efficacy of supraglottic airway device use in many surgeries has been shown. Due to concerns such as tracheal blood leakage and vocal cord contamination in nasal septum surgery, there are doubts about the use of laryngeal mask airway among anesthesiologists. The primary purpose of this study is; the aim of this study was to evaluate the tracheal blood leak with a flexible fiberoptic endoscope in patients who underwent nasal septum surgery and continued airway patency via laryngeal mask airway or endotracheal tube. Secondly, oropharyngeal leak pressure, hemodynamic response, airway reflexes (laryngospasm, bronchospasm, cough, desaturation), postoperative nausea, vomiting, sore throat, hoarseness and difficulty in swallowing will be evaluated.
