Types of Sinus Surgery
There are several types of sinus surgeries available, each tailored to specific conditions:
- Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS): The most common type, FESS uses an endoscope to remove blockages and improve sinus drainage.
- Balloon Sinuplasty: A less invasive option, balloon sinuplasty uses a small balloon to widen sinus passages, ideal for patients with mild blockages.
- Caldwell-Luc Procedure: Typically reserved for severe cases, this surgery involves creating a new pathway for sinus drainage.
Each procedure has its own benefits and risks, and consulting with a specialized ENT surgeon can help determine the best option for your specific condition.
