Palatal perforation, the most rarely observed complication after deviated septum surgery.
J Pak Med Assoc Jan ;64(11):1322-3.

Numerous complications after septoplasty have been identified in the literature. Blindness and palatal perforation are among the rarest complications. The palatal perforation experienced by the presented patient was because he was not thoroughly examined before surgery. Secondly, we wanted to emphasize the fact that care must be taken during septoplasty operation, particularly while performing the intervention to the inferior septal area.
