Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is a safe and effective treatment for pediatric chronic sinusitis when medical management fails. This study found FESS beneficial for children with chronic sinusitis, with a high success rate and few complications.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Pediatric Surgery

Context:

  • Sinusitis is a common condition in children, often multifactorial.
  • Medical treatment is typically the first line of care for pediatric sinusitis.
  • Surgical intervention is considered when medical treatments are ineffective.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) in treating chronic sinusitis in children.
  • To assess the outcomes and complications of FESS in a pediatric population.

Summary:

  • Twenty-two children aged 6–16 with chronic sinusitis underwent FESS.
  • The procedure involved ostiomeatal reconstruction.
  • Postoperative follow-up ranged from 3 to 18 months, with no major complications reported.
  • Synechia occurred in 47% of patients, but 86% achieved fair results.

Impact:

  • FESS is a safe surgical option for pediatric chronic sinusitis.
  • The procedure demonstrates significant benefits for children unresponsive to medical therapy.
  • Well-executed FESS contributes positively to managing pediatric sinus disease.
