Microdebrider-assisted versus radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinoplasty.
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to evaluate the long-term efficacy of microdebrider-assisted inferior turbinoplasty (MAIT) compared to radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinoplasty (RAIT) for hypertrophic inferior turbinates. STUDY DESIGN Surgical outcomes were evaluated using the visual analogue scale, anterior rhinomanometry, and saccharin test results. METHODS From January 2001 to December 2...
متن کاملComparison of Radiofrequency Thermal Ablation and Microdebrider-Assisted Turbinoplasty in Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy: A Prospective, Randomized, and Clinical Study.
Objective To compare the effectiveness of radiofrequency thermal ablation with those of microdebrider-assisted turbinoplasty, we designed a prospective, randomized clinical study. Methods Forty patients suffering from nasal obstruction due to bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy were enrolled. Half of the patients were operated by radiofrequency thermal ablation, while the other half unde...
متن کاملMicrodebrider-assisted versus radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinoplasty: a prospective study with objective and subjective outcome measures.
In order to relieve the symptoms of nasal obstruction in patients with inferior turbinate hypertrophy, various surgical methods have been used. Aim of this study was to compare post-operative outcome between radiofrequency and microdebrider-assisted partial turbinoplasty. A prospective study was performed in 268 patients with nasal obstruction and hypertrophied turbinate mucosa refractory to me...
متن کاملEfficacy of Radiofrequency Turbinatoplasty for Treatment of Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy
Introduction: Nasal inferior turbinate hypertrophy is one of the most common causes of nasal obstruction. Many different surgical methods are currently available. The aim of this study was to review the efficacy and results of radiofrequency turbinatoplasty as a new method in the treatment of the large inferior nasal turbinate. Materials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted on 5...
متن کاملComparison between power-assisted turbinoplasty and submucosal resection in the treatment of inferior turbinate hypertrophy.
OBJECTIVES To compare the efficacy of power-microdebrider-assisted inferior turbinoplasty (PAT) with submucosal resection (SMR) in the treatment of inferior turbinate hypertrophy. METHODS A prospective randomized clinical trial study of 46 patients with bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Patients were randomly divided into 2 groups: PAT and SMR. RESULTS Intraoperative blood loss was ...
