The influence of nasal osteotomies and septum surgery on the growth of the rabbit snout

Abstract
A number of operative procedures were performed on growing rabbits. These procedures were as closely related as possible to those techniques used to straighten the [human] nose. Subsequent development of both the nose and, frequently, the maxilla was greatly retarded after all the septal operations. Osteotomies did not appear to interfere with the growth of the snout in any of the rabbits.
