11 lip 2024 · Middle turbinate (MT) surgery is extremely common during endoscopic sinus surgery procedures, though no agreement exists on which techniques provide the best outcomes. This PRISMA-compliant systematic review aims to assess which MT surgery technique yields the least postoperative adverse effects and the best objective and subjective outcomes.
Surgical therapy of the inferior and/or middle turbinate is indicated when conservative treatment options have failed. The desired goal is a reduction of the soft tissue volume of the turbinates regarding the individual anatomic findings, whilst simultaneously conserving as much mucosa as possible.
19 cze 2021 · An electronic search was done using PubMed, Medline, and Ovid Science Direct databases using the keywords “synechia, Middle Turbinates, Sinus surgery”. The search unearthed a large volume of diverse materials that have been used to prevent lateralization of MT after FESS.
Middle turbinate stabilization after functional endoscopic sinus surgery: the controlled synechiae technique. Laryngoscope. 1999;109:1852–1853. doi: 10.1097/00005537-199911000-00025.

The goal of this study was to prospectively evaluate endoscopy exam, olfactory function, and quality-of-life (QOL) status after endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) for patients with and without bilateral middle turbinate resection, while controlling for factors which might confound these outcomes.
8 lis 2018 · If symptoms persist, endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) can be recommended [4]. The surgery has multiple goals such as removal of gross disease, marsupialization of sinus cavities, clearance of inspissated secretions and improved access of post-operative topical medical therapies [5].
