Chronic Sinusitis: A Sequela of Inferior Turbinectomy

American Journal of Rhinology, 1998
Inferior turbinectomy has generated a great deal of controversy among rhinologic surgeons. Proponents of partial and total inferior turbinectomy cite numerous studies of large numbers of patients with subjective relief of nasal obstruction after turbinectomy.

Inferior turbinectomy: Comparison of four techniques

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1990
AbstractAs yet, there is no totally satisfactory means for treating hypertrophied turbinates and the proper management of turbinate dysfunction remains in question. In the present series, four of the widely practiced surgical procedures for the reduction of the size of the inferior turbinates were evaluated and compared.

Partial Inferior Turbinectomy During Secondary Alveolar Bone Grafting

International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, 2002
This study examined the characteristics and outcome of patients undergoing partial inferior turbinectomy during secondary alveolar bone grafting. Thirty-three of 55 patients with cleft lip and palate or cleft lip and alveolus who underwent secondary alveolar bone grafting concurrently received partial inferior turbinectomy to ensure that the height of ...

A comparison of partial inferior turbinectomy and cryosurgery for hypertrophic inferior turbinates

The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1996
AbstractA variety of surgical procedures are performed for treatment of hypertrophic inferior turbinates, but there is no completely effective therapy. We evaluated subjectively and objectively 52 patients who underwent one of two procedures: partial inferior turbinectomy (PIT) or cryosurgery of the inferior turbinates (CS).

Total Inferior Turbinectomy for Nasal Airway Obstruction

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1985
A variety of surgical procedures are performed to open the nasal airway chronically obstructed by hypertrophic inferior turbinates. Because the results are universally unsatisfactory, we suggest bilateral total inferior turbinectomy to patients in whom medical therapy fails.

Comparative Study Between Partial Inferior Turbinectomy and Submucosal Diathermy for Treatment of Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy Due to Allergic Rhinitis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery, 2018
<p class="abstract"><strong>Background:</strong> Nasal obstruction due to inferior turbinate hypertrophy is one of the most common symptoms of Allergic rhinitis (AR) which causes significant debility. Surgery is one of the modalities of

Total Inferior Turbinectomy: Benefits and Complications

American Journal of Rhinology, 1990
Between 1975 and 1987, 115 patients underwent inferior turbinectomy and 87% were available for review. The nature and extent of their pre- and postoperative symptoms were determined, and rhinoscopy was undertaken to establish the completeness of turbinectomy and the presence of intranasal complications.

Total Inferior Turbinectomy: Operative Results and Technique

Annals of Otology, Rhinology and Laryngology, 2000
The internal nasal structures, including the turbinates, regulate the nasal airflow. The surgical treatment of turbinate hypertrophy remains controversial. A wide variety of surgical procedures is performed, with universally unsatisfactory results. Interference with nasal physiology and possible postoperative complications have been the main reasons ...

Haemorrhage as a Complication of Inferior Turbinectomy: A Comparison of Anterior and Radical Trimming

Clinical Otolaryngology, 1995
A study was conducted to see whether the turbinectomy technique used influenced the incidence of haemorrhage. In a group of 214 patients who underwent bilateral turbinate surgery, haemorrhage occurred in 0.9% of those who had anterior turbinectomy and 5.8% who had radical turbinectomy (P < 0.05).

Changes in Olfactory Acuity Induced by Total Inferior Turbinectomy

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1986
The short-term and long-term effects of total inferior turbinectomy on smell acuity was assessed in two groups of patients. Olfactory thresholds were determined by a three-way forced-choice method, using four odorants. Resection of obstructive inferior turbinates resulted in a decrease in olfactory thresholds in 22 of 24 tested patients. No deleterious
