Operations on the nose: Plastic reconstruction of the inner and outer nose [septorhinoplasty]: Unspecified

The contents of this page are currently being translated and will soon also be available in English.

Ihre Nasen-Scheidewand und Ihre äußere Nase wurden in einer Operation gerichtet.

Wir brauchen die Nase zum Atmen und zum Riechen. Knochen und Knorpel formen das Äußere der Nase. Die Nasen-Scheidewand trennt die Nasenhöhle in zwei Hälften. Das Innere der Nase ist von einer feuchten Schleimhaut überzogen. Die Nasenmuscheln sind Knochenvorsprünge in der Nase, die ebenfalls mit Schleimhaut bedeckt sind.

Additional indicator

If necessary, additional letters are appended to OPS codes to indicate which side of the body is affected.

  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides

Further information

Note

Your doctor will assist you with any health-related questions and explain the OPS code to you in a direct consultation if necessary.
