The nasal passage, divided into two sides by the nasal septum, allows airflow into the lungs. A Deviated Nasal Septum occurs when the septum is shifted to one side or grows abnormally, leading to nasal airway obstruction and resulting in sinus issues. Infections in the nose and sinuses can cause difficulty breathing, a reduced sense of smell and taste, and recurrent headaches. Overgrowth of the lining tissue in the nose can lead to nasal polyps.Advances in this field, coupled with the integration of new technologies such as navigation systems, microdebriders, and improved medical management, have enhanced the effectiveness of sinus treatment at our hospital.

Diagnosis

With advanced diagnostic tools, our specialists can achieve precise diagnoses. Carefully planned, minimally invasive endoscopic procedures through the nostrils, along with endoscopic surgical interventions, are ideal for addressing obstructive and infectious conditions. These surgical techniques, combined with medications and anti-allergy treatments, offer a permanent solution for patients.

Treatments

Rhinology, primarily addresses conditions such as allergies, nasal obstructions, nasal polyps, and chronic sinusitis. Patients typically consult ENT specialists with symptoms like postnasal drip and facial pressure around the nose, eyes, and forehead. Sinusitis is more prevalent in individuals with allergies, nasal polyps, asthma, or abnormal nasal structures.

To treat these conditions, a variety of techniques utilizing the latest technology are employed. Balloon sinuplasty, a minimally invasive endoscopic procedure, is used to treat chronic or recurring sinus infections by widening narrow or obstructed sinus drainage pathways. This technique is especially beneficial for recurrent frontal sinus diseases where multiple surgeries have failed. Turbinate surgeries are also performed to alleviate nasal obstructions and breathing difficulties. Minimally invasive techniques and endoscopic approaches are used for procedures such as Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), Septoplasty, and Tuboplasty.
