Abstract:
Bilateral transnasal vidian neurectomy was performed on 276 patients between 1983 and 1991. The indications for operation were intractable vasomotor rhinitis, resistant allergic rhinitis and recurrent nasal polyposis. Two hundred and fifty-eight patients were contacted and long-term results showed that 88 per cent of the patients had an excellent result.
