Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Surgical Innovation

Context:

  • Nasal polyps and paranasal sinusitis present significant challenges in otolaryngology.
  • Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) has emerged as a key treatment modality.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and outcomes of endoscopic sinus surgery for nasal polyps and sinusitis.
  • To analyze the impact of different ESS techniques, including ethmoidectomy and sphenoethmoidectomy, on patient recovery.

Summary:

  • This study reviewed 69 patients (121 sides) undergoing ESS for nasal polyps and sinusitis.
  • Postoperative follow-up revealed significant symptom improvement: 96.6% resolution of nasal obstruction, 91% remission of headaches, and 64.8% reduction in purulent discharge.
  • The overall incidence of residual or recurrent polyps was 12.39% with no severe complications reported.

Impact:

  • Endoscopic sinus surgery demonstrates high efficacy in managing sinonasal diseases.
  • The findings support ESS as a safe and effective surgical option for patients with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyposis.
  • Discussion includes surgical indications, preoperative CT imaging, and endoscopic techniques, contributing to best practice guidelines.
