Rhinosinusitis, a common chronic illness, may require surgery if medical treatments fail. Endoscopic sinus surgery is now standard, offering minimally invasive benefits for nasal and sinus conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Innovation

Background:

  • Rhinosinusitis is a prevalent chronic disease impacting quality of life.
  • Medical management is the first line of treatment, with surgery reserved for refractory cases.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review clinical presentations of rhinosinusitis.
  • To provide an overview of current medical and surgical treatment options.

Main Methods:

  • Review of clinical presentations and treatment modalities for rhinosinusitis.
  • Focus on endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) as the standard surgical approach.
  • Discussion of adjunct technologies like computer-assisted image guidance and intraoperative fluoroscopy.

Main Results:

  • Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is the current standard for sinonasal pathologies, replacing traditional external approaches in most cases.

  • ESS offers advantages including minimally invasive access, enhanced visualization, and magnification.
  • Adjunct technologies significantly reduce risks and complications associated with ESS.

    • Conclusions:

    • Endoscopic sinus surgery is the preferred surgical method for rhinosinusitis, restoring nasal and paranasal cavity function.
    • Computer-assisted guidance and surgical simulation enhance safety and training in ESS.
    • Further research into surgical simulation can improve outcomes and reduce errors.
