Inferior Turbinectomy versus Submucosal Diathermy for Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 2000
In order to compare and evaluate bilateral inferior turbinectomy (BIT) and submucosal diathermy (SMD), we retrospectively examined these two well-known techniques for treatment of nasal obstruction due to bilateral congestion of the inferior turbinates.

Treatment of Hypertrophy of the Inferior Turbinate: Long-Term Results in 382 Patients Randomly Assigned to Therapy

Annals of Otology, Rhinology and Laryngology, 1999
A number of surgical techniques are commonly performed to control the symptoms of inferior turbinate hypertrophy unresponsive to medical treatment. We report long-term results in 382 patients randomly assigned to receive electrocautery (62), cryotherapy (

Systematic Review of Surgical Interventions for Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy

American Journal of Rhinology & Allergy, 2022
Background Various surgical interventions exist for treatment of inferior turbinate hypertrophy (ITH). Though mucosal-sparing techniques are generally preferred, there is lack of consensus on the optimal technique.

Unilateral Inferior Turbinate Bone Hypertrophy: Is it Compensatory or Congenital?

American Journal of Rhinology & Allergy, 2013
Background This study evaluates the degree of the unilateral hypertrophied inferior turbinate (HIT) by computed tomography (CT) and determines and compares the enlargement of the turbinate bone and soft tissue in different parts of the HIT in pediatric and adult groups.

Surgical Treatment for Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy

2020
The inferior turbinate (IT) is formed by the bone, submucosal tissue, and the overlying mucosa. To decide the type of IT surgery, an understanding of the contributing component of the inferior turbinate hypertrophy is important [Leong SC, Eccles R. Curr Opin Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg. 18(1):54–9, 2010].

An optimization method for surgical reduction of hypertrophied inferior turbinate

Journal of Biomechanics, 2020
Surgical reductions of the hypertrophied inferior turbinate (HIT) can improve nasal obstruction. However, there is currently a lack of personalized and objective methods to guide surgical operations, which results in the excessive or inadequate resection of HIT.

Surgical management of inferior turbinate hypertrophy

Operative Techniques in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, 2018
Nasal obstruction remains a common complaint and is a frequent reason for children to see otolaryngologists. Due to its location, proximal to the internal nasal valve, enlargement of the inferior turbinate can cause significant nasal obstruction. Symptoms vary widely and treatment may include both medical and surgical options.

Controversies in the Management of Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy: A Comprehensive Review

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1999
Nasal obstruction must frequently be addressed during functional rhinoplasty. Even after a properly performed septorhinoplasty correcting septal deflection and/or nasal valve collapse, nasal obstruction may persist due to turbinate hypertrophy. Turbinates have many important functions, including warming and humidification of inspired air, and numerous ...

Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy: A Review of the Evolution of Management in Children

American Journal of Rhinology & Allergy, 2018
Background Historically, there has been uncertainty in the treatment of inferior turbinate hypertrophy (ITH) in children. Although management always begins with medical therapy, the decision to offer surgery in resistant cases is becoming more widely practiced.
