Track: Surgery for Nasal Disorders
Nasal disorder surgeries encompass a range of procedures to address conditions like deviated septum, chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, and nasal tumors. These surgeries aim to improve nasal airflow, alleviate symptoms such as congestion and facial pain, and restore normal nasal function for better quality of life.
Common issues include chronic sinusitis, which causes inflammation and infection of the sinuses, and allergic rhinitis, leading to symptoms like sneezing, congestion, and a runny nose due to allergies. Deviated septum can obstruct airflow and cause breathing difficulties. Nasal polyps, noncancerous growths, can lead to nasal congestion and decreased sense of smell. Effective management often involves medications, nasal sprays, and, in some cases, surgical interventions like septoplasty or endoscopic sinus surgery.
Septoplasty: A surgical procedure to correct a deviated nasal septum, improving airflow and relieving nasal obstruction or breathing difficulties.
Endoscopic Sinus Surgery: Utilizes a thin, flexible tube with a camera (endoscope) to visualize and remove blockages or diseased tissue from the sinuses, improving sinus drainage and function.
Nasal Polypectomy: Involves the removal of nasal polyps—noncancerous growths in the nasal passages or sinuses—to alleviate symptoms like congestion, nasal obstruction, and reduced sense of smell.
Turbinate Reduction: Reduces the size of the turbinates (bony structures inside the nose) to decrease nasal obstruction and improve airflow, often used to treat chronic nasal congestion.
Nasal Tumor Resection: Surgical removal of tumors from the nasal cavity or sinuses, aiming to treat or remove cancerous or benign growths while preserving as much healthy tissue as possible.
