Bleeding risk associated with resection of the middle turbinate during functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
BACKGROUND The decision to resect the middle turbinate (MT) during functional endoscopic sinus surgery is controversial. Although there have been a variety of studies that examined the functional outcome related to this maneuver, very few studies evaluated the potential for complications, in particular, epistaxis. OBJECTIVE We sought to determine if resection of the MT during functional endos...
متن کاملClinical significance of middle turbinate lateralization after endoscopic sinus surgery.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS To investigate the clinical significance of middle turbinate lateralization (MTL) occurrence postendoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for chronic rhinosinusitis, namely, association with postoperative symptoms and eventual need for undergoing revision surgery. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective chart review of consecutive postoperative follow-up appointments (November 2009-May 2011) f...
متن کاملMiddle turbinate medialization for improved access during endoscopic sinus surgery.
INTRODUCTION Proper management of the middle turbinate in endoscopic sinus surgery is often a topic of debate. Most authors, however, agree in the need to prevent lateralization. We describe our preferred technique and stress the timing of the medialization procedure. METHODS The middle turbinates are sutured to the nasal septum at the beginning of the operation. This allows optimal access to...
متن کاملMiddle turbinate medialization and preservation in endoscopic sinus surgery.
OBJECTIVE/HYPOTHESIS Lateral synechia formation between the middle turbinate (MT) and the lateral nasal wall is the most common complication of endoscopic sinus surgery. In an attempt to prevent this complication, a simple technique to preserve and medialize the MT was studied. METHODS Five hundred patients underwent endoscopic sinus surgery with MT medialization and preservation. The caudal ...
متن کاملMorphometric Evaluation of the Middle Turbinate in Relation to Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
Objective: Partial middle turbinectomy during endoscopic sinus surgery is done for better access and to avoid postoperative complications of lateralization of the middle turbinate. There are only few cadaveric studies available in literature describing the middle turbinate morphometry with surgical perspective. Therefore, the present study was planned to record morphometry and relevant surgical...
