Preoperative and postoperative assessment at 1 and 3 months follow-up included active anterior rhinomanometry, measurement of mucociliary transport time (MCTt), and nasal cytology to determine whether improved nasal breathing was accompanied by a restoration of preoperative nasal cytology and MCTt. One year after the operation, nasal cytology was repeated to definitively evaluate the presence of surgery-related cytological damage.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>At both postoperative visits, nasal resistance had decreased similarly in both treatment groups;
