Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic surgical procedure that is widely applied today and is characterized by edema in the postoperative period. In particular, edema can cause prolonged recovery and deterioration in the patient's social life. Various studies have been conducted using certain drugs or different surgical techniques to reduce edema and ecchymosis in rhinoplasty. In rhinoplasty, edema occurs after the absorption of interstitial fluid in the nose is disrupted as a result of trauma to the bone and soft tissue. Ecchymosis occurs when blood passes from damaged vessels due to surgery to the loose and thin soft tissue around the eye. Ecchymosis is often seen on the eyelids after open rhinoplasty. Ecchymosis usually moves in the direction of gravity and increases in the first two days after surgery. Systemic inflammatory response index and systemic immune inflammation index can be easily obtained with a simple hemogram test. These indexes have been suggested to be a useful parameter in many diseases associated with inflammation, but research is still ongoing. Inflammation values and the resulting response have an important effect on wound formation and healing. However, increased inflammation can also increase edema and ecchymosis in the postoperative period. In this study, the researchers aimed to investigate the relationship between preoperative inflammation values and postoperative edema and ecchymosis in open rhinoplasties.
