Functional endoscopic sinus surgery achieved a 91% success rate in treating 100 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps. While recurrence occurred in some ethmoidal polyp cases, the procedure proved effective for sinonasal inflammatory diseases.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Innovation
  • Rhinology

Background:

  • Chronic inflammatory sinus diseases, particularly nasal polyposis, significantly impact patient quality of life.
  • Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is a primary surgical intervention for these conditions.
  • Understanding outcomes and complications of FESS is crucial for patient management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and complication rates of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in patients with nasal polyposis.
  • To assess the recurrence rates for different types of nasal polyps after FESS.
  • To determine the overall success rate of FESS in a clinical setting.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective study involving 100 patients diagnosed with nasal polyposis.

  • Patients underwent functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) at MMCH.
  • Data collected included polyp type (ethmoidal vs. antrochoanal), age range (7-45 years), recurrence, and complications.

    • Main Results:

    • Overall success rate of 91% was observed after FESS.
    • Recurrence was noted in 7 out of 53 ethmoidal polyp cases, requiring revision surgery.
    • Two cases of antrochoanal polyp with inverted papilloma presented with recurrence.
    • Complications included periorbital hematoma (4 patients) and orbital fat prolapse (5 patients) due to lamina papyraceae injury.

    Conclusions:

    • Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) demonstrates a high success rate (91%) for treating nasal polyposis.
    • While recurrence is possible, particularly with ethmoidal polyps, FESS remains an effective treatment.
    • Careful surgical technique is essential to minimize complications such as periorbital hematoma and orbital injury.
