Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) using Messerklinger's method showed satisfactory results for chronic recurrent sinusitis, with 80-85% of patients improving. Early complications were minor, and late complications were insignificant.

Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Innovation

Context:

  • Chronic recurrent sinusitis presents a significant clinical challenge.
  • Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) offers a minimally invasive approach.
  • Messerklinger's technique represents a specific FESS methodology.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Messerklinger's FESS method for chronic recurrent sinusitis.
  • To assess patient outcomes and complication rates following the procedure.

Summary:

  • A study of 46 patients undergoing Messerklinger's FESS for chronic recurrent sinusitis reported positive outcomes.
  • 80-85% of patients experienced symptom relief or improvement at a 13-month follow-up.
  • Minor complications (hemorrhage, infection) occurred in under 30%, with one dural lesion healing without sequelae. Synechia formation did not significantly impact outcomes.

Impact:

  • The findings suggest Messerklinger's FESS is a satisfactory treatment option for chronic recurrent sinusitis.
  • Further research with larger cohorts and longer follow-up is needed to confirm its role in the Danish therapeutic system.
