Computational fluid dynamics as surgical planning tool: a pilot study on middle turbinate resection. [PDF]
Controversies exist regarding the resection or preservation of the middle turbinate (MT) during functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Any MT resection will perturb nasal airflow and may affect the mucociliary dynamics of the osteomeatal complex.

Is Only Septoplasty Justified in Deviated Nasal Septum with Chronic Rhinosinusitis? [PDF]
Introduction: Nasal septal deviation is a common condition and it alters the nasal cavity airflow dynamics which causes hypertrophy of sino-nasal mucosa. It leads to impaired mucociliary clearance, osteo-meatal complex obstruction and sinusitis.
