Advanced Sinus Surgery

Advanced sinus surgery is a specialised ENT surgery that is done to treat chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, recurrent sinus infections, and complex sinus disorders that do not respond to medications. Using state-of-the-art endoscopic technology and minimally invasive techniques, our ENT surgeons are able to restore healthy sinus function, improve breathing, and offer long-term relief from persistent sinus problems.

What is Advanced Sinus Surgery?

Advanced Sinus Surgery is a term that refers to the use of modern, image-guided and minimally invasive surgical techniques to the treatment of diseases of the sinuses and nasal passages. These procedures allow surgeons to access and treat blocked or diseased sinuses through the nostrils, without the need for external incisions.

Advanced techniques improve overall nasal and sinus health by restoring normal sinus drainage, reducing inflammation, and preserving healthy tissue.

Advanced Sinus Surgery Procedure

1. Comprehensive Assessment

The ENT doctor will do a detailed examination, nasal endoscopy and may order a CT scan of the sinuses.

2. Surgical Planning

Advanced imaging helps to create an accurate treatment plan that is specific to the patient’s condition.

3. Anaesthesia

The procedure is typically performed under general anaesthesia for optimal comfort.

4. Sinus Surgery with an Endoscope

The surgeon uses a high-definition endoscope and specialised instruments to remove blockages, polyps and diseased tissue, while preserving healthy structures.

5. Navigation with Image Guidance (if needed)

Computer-assisted navigation systems are more precise and safer for complex cases.

6. Recuperación y Seguimiento

Patients are monitored after surgery and receive post-operative care instructions.

The procedure usually takes 1-3 hours depending on the complexity of the condition.

Recovery After Sinus Surgery

Most patients will notice a gradual improvement in breathing and sinus symptoms as the healing process continues.

What to Expect:

  • Slight nasal congestion
  • Transient rhinorrhea or minor haemorrhage
  • Mild pressure on the face
  • Crusts in the nose during healing
  • Gradual improvement of symptoms

Recovery Timeline:

  • Most patients are discharged the same day
