ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: Resection of middle turbinate in the setting of endoscopic sinus surgery is a controversial procedure. Our aim is to assess the impact of the anterior part middle turbinoplasty on the outcome of endoscopic sinus surgery, incidence of synechia between the middle turbinate and the lateral nasal wall, intra- and post-operative accessibility to the paranasal sinuses.

METHODS: Single blinded randomized controlled study of 120 patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without polyps, they were allocated into two groups, we performed anterior part middle turbinoplasty in the group one "60 patients", and we preserved the middle turbinate in the group two "60 patients". We assessed the patients pre-operatively by Sino-nasal outcome Test (SNOT-22), intra-operatively by Likert scale score for the sinuses accessibility. At least 6 m onths post-operatively, we assessed the patients by SNOT-22, and Likert scale score for sinus accessibility.

RESULTS: During and after surgery, the Likert scale score in the group one showed statistically significant better sinuses accessibility than in the group two. We noticed synechia between the MT and the lateral nasal wall in 9.2% and 18.2% of the operated sides in group one and group two, respectively. SNOT-22 and its smell item improved significantly in both groups with no statistically significant differences between them. No major complications were reported.

CONCLUSION: Anterior part middle turbinoplasty is a safe and effective technique during endoscopic sinus surgery to improve the intra- and post-operative sinus accessibility, and decrease the incidence of post-operative synechia, with no adverse effect on olfaction or bleeding.
