Rhinoplasty and Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

الملخص EN

An increasing number of patients are opting for combining sinus surgery and cosmetic rhinoplasty.

The author has been performing rhinoplasty with FESS since April of 1990.

The technique and equipment used in early cases is much different than that used in more recent surgeries.

Specific advances include high definition monitor, intraoperative navigation system, and powered dissecting instruments.

The benefits of these advances are illustrated by a review of the more recent cases performed by the author.

Combined rhinoplasty and FESS can be performed with good results (functional and cosmetic) and minimal complications.

Advances in sinus surgery technique and equipment have made the procedure safer, faster, more precise, and more comfortable.
