Surgical Procedures
At AZHD we offer a full range of surgical procedures for Nose and Sinus problems.:
Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
Sinuses are hollow cavities in your head. There are four groups of sinuses: frontal , ethmoid, maxillary and sphenoid.
They communicate vie narrow passages called ostia with nasal cavity. They naturally produce mucus, which is transported through the sties into the nasal cavity. The goal of Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (ESS) is to reopen sinus ventilation and their “drainage” function after becoming physically obstructed due to recurrent infection or by nasal polyps. Medical treatment alone (antibiotics and nasal sprays) cannot solve the problem. Endoscopic sinus surgery is highly successful at improving the symptoms of nasal blockage, runny nose and for certain facial pain.
Septoplasty
The nose is partitioned in the middle by the nasal septum, dividing it into two nostrils. The nasal septum is made of cartilage and bone. Sometimes, due to injury or simply through natural growth it may be bent, buckled or deviated to one or both sides causing blockage by reducing the area available for air to flow through. An operation called Septoplasty is used to correct this abnormality in order to allow air to pass through either nostril more easily. The Septoplasty could be combined with Rhinoplasty, which is a cosmetic procedure aimed to improve a shape of your nose.
The procedure is performed internally, through the nostril without the need for external incision. There is no black eyes after the surgery & the outward shape of the nose is not altered.
Turbinoplasty
The goal of the procedure is to trim these lower most “side cushions” on the sidewall of the nose to improve nasal airway – or to increase the ability to breathe freely through the nose. We use either of two new minimally invasive procedures, radiofrequency or submucous shaver depending on the nasal mucosa. Nasal packing is not necessary. Nasal drops are advised for a couple of days to maintain a clear nose. Patients are usually discharged two hours after the procedure. There are no black eyes, external incisions or change in shape of the nose.
