The aim of the study was to assess the outcome of nasal deformity correction using rhinopasty outcome evaluation (ROE) scale. We conducted a prospective study of 30 patients with crooked nasal deformityin period 2008 to 2011 and assessed outcome with the help of ROE scale. Preoperative mean ROE score was 34.15 ± 15.58. All 30 patients ROE score was less than 85 in preoperative period.
Postoperative mean score was 86.50 ± 7.07 with a mean gain of 52.35. 21/30 patients (70%) had postoperative score of more
than 85 (excellent). Rhinoplasty outcome evaluation scale is a useful subjective tool to assess the impact of deformity and outcome after surgery (patient's satisfaction).
