Does Total Inferior and Middle Turbinectomy Always Lead to Empty Nose Syndrome?
Abstract Objective Empty Nose Syndrome (ENS) is a rare and paradoxical complication often associated with aggressive turbinate reductions. Previous computational fluid dynamic (CFD) modeling has indicated that distorted nasal airflow patterns could contribute to ENS. However, no data have shown

Voice analysis following turbinectomy in patients with hypertrophied inferior turbinate secondary to allergic and vasomotor rhinitis refractory to conservative treatment [PDF]
Introduction: Alterations in the configuration of the nasal cavity made surgicallyvia procedures such as turbinectomy have been assumed to cause changes in the perceived nasal resonance of the patients post surgery which tends to manifest changes in ...

Submucosal Inferior Turbinectomy to Widen the Surgical Corridor for Endoscopic Endonasal Skull Base Surgery [PDF]
The nasal cavity is the exclusive surgical corridor for endoscopic endonasal surgery; however, it is sometimes too narrow to allow extensive surgical maneuvering. Here we show the technique of submucosal inferior turbinectomy (SIT) to widen this surgical

Revision Inferior Turbinate Reduction: Rates and Predictors
In a multi‐institutional retrospective cohort of patients who had inferior turbinate reduction, 4.3% needed revision surgery, at a median of 42 months (IQR 18–67). At revision, there was a shift toward less invasive techniques and office‐based procedures.
