Does Total Inferior and Middle Turbinectomy Always Lead to Empty Nose Syndrome? [PDF]

Otolaryngol Head Neck Surg
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 ...

Partial inferior turbinectomy versus Coblator Assisted Turbinoplasty: an evidence based analysis of nasal airway improvement

The Egyptian Journal of Otolaryngology
Background Enlargement of the inferior turbinates is a common cause of chronic nasal obstruction. Pharmacological therapy is generally the treatment of choice. Patients who do not respond will be treated by surgical reduction of turbinate.

Laryngeal Changes After Septoplasty and Turbinectomy

Indian Journal of Otolaryngology and Head & Neck Surgery, 2023
Studies found only a little amount of evidence about the impact of septoplasty on the mechanism of voice production, as well as vocal cord and laryngeal mucosal changes. Nasal obstruction is a common medical issue that is linked to changes in the quality of resonance of voice.
