A review of the revisions and complications management procedure in sinus surgery

One of the most standard and least invasive surgical procedures that could be applied mostly for the treatment of inflammation of the paranasal sinuses is endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery. The main objective of this study is to assess the available strategies for avoiding, diagnosis and also dealing with various kinds of potential complications of sinus disorders as well as the symptoms which specify the need for revision endoscopic sinus surgery mainly for the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis. Based on the objectives of this study, the studies were categorized within four main groups; sinus disorders, diagnosis, management, and treatment. In this regard, wide research has been done in various scientific databases of PubMed, EMBASE, Europe PMC, HubMed, MEDLINE, Scientific Information Database (SID) and Google Scholar. From a total of 315 founded records, the final number of 91 records were reviewed. The rate of complication associated with endoscopic sinus surgery is not much and the improvement of surgical technology and experience could decrease its side effects. Performing immediate extensive surgery among patients who have inflammatory sinonasal disease could modify long-term consequences. Applying endoscopic sinus surgery could yield the most appropriate positive outcomes. For achieving the most suitable surgical consequences, the surgeon should be adequately qualified in diagnosis and facing with any possible complications during the operation in addition to cases with complex and revision problems.
