What is Sinus Surgery?

Sinus surgery is a surgical procedure to address problems within the sinus cavity. The procedure is intended to increase drainage, and decrease inflammation of the sinuses thus reducing signs of chronic sinusitis as well as other sinus-related conditions. The most commonly used techniques are Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) balloon sinuplasty and removal of sinus cysts. The aim is to improve sinus function, decrease the incidence of infections, and improve the overall nasal breathing.

Who Performs Your Surgery?

Sinus operations performed at Chirayu Super Speciality Hospital are performed by highly experienced Otolaryngologists (ENT specialists) who have extensive experience managing complicated sinus conditions. Our doctors utilize the most recent technology and techniques to provide accurate and efficient results. Our surgical staff is aided by highly skilled anesthesiologists as well as nursing personnel, who provide comprehensive support before, during and after the procedure, to ensure a comfortable and safe experience.

Types of Sinus Surgery

  • Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) : A minimally invasive procedure that uses an endoscope to observe and treat sinus problems. FESS is efficient in removal of polyps, repairing blockages in the anatomy, and improving sinus drainage.
  • Balloon Sinuplasty : A procedure which involves inserting a balloon inside the sinus, and then balloon inflation to expand the sinus passageways, to improve drainage and avoiding the necessity for surgery.
  • Sinus Cyst Removal : Performed to remove cysts or growths in the sinuses, which can block normal function and trigger symptoms.
  • Sinusotomy : An operation to open a hole within the sinus cavity in order to allow more drainage and lessen inflammation.

Symptoms Indicating the Need for Sinus Surgery

  • Nasal congestion that is chronic and is not relieved by medication.
  • Pressure or facial pain that persists
  • Consistent sinus infections and sinusitis that persist even after treatment.
  • A diminished sense of smell or taste.
  • Chronic cough and post nasal drip.
  • Sinus-related pain and headaches.

Diagnosis for Sinus Surgery

The diagnosis is made after a thorough examination of the symptoms and medical background. An ENT expert will carry out a physical exam which could include nasal endoscopy to see the sinus passages. Imaging tests like CT scans and MRIs are frequently utilized to determine the severity of sinus problems and to guide the procedure. The aim is to determine the root cause of sinus problem and decide on the most suitable surgical approach.

Treatment Process

The process of treatment begins by having a comprehensive consultation with the doctor to discuss the patient’s symptoms as well as treatment options and the anticipated outcomes. The procedure is generally performed under general anesthesia and the technique chosen is employed to address particular sinus problems identified. The post-operative treatment includes reducing discomfort, following the guidelines for treating the nasal area as well as attending follow-up visits in order to monitor healing and confirm the efficacy of the procedure. Patients might feel some discomfort at first, however, most will be able to return to routine activities within a couple of weeks.

Care and Recovery After Surgery

The recovery process following sinus surgery is comprised of many important aspects. The patients are directed to stay off and avoid vigorous activities for a certain period following surgery. Nasal care guidelines like using saline sprays and not blowing your nose, are offered to assist in the healing process. Treatment for pain and possibly antibiotics are prescribed to avoid infections and ease discomfort. Visits to follow-up are necessary to monitor the progress of recovery and to address any concerns. The majority of patients experience relief from sinus-related symptoms as well as better nasal function following recovery.
