Between 1965-1972, 12 patients with Osler's disease of the nose were treated surgically by a modification of the method suggested by Saunders. The mucosa of the entire nasal septum and entire floor of the nose up to the insertion of the inferior turbinate was removed without interference to the perichondrium or periosteum. The denuded area was covered with split thickness skin graft taken from the thigh. Haemorrhage, which was never severe, occassionally occurred. In all patients, there occurred crusting and foetor, which was controlled by nasal douching. Patients with Osler's disease should be treated as early as possible in order to curtail the work disability.
