An unusual complication following inferior turbinectomy
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1995AbstractNeurological complications following turbinate surgery are relatively rare. We present here an unusual complication of unilateral partial oculomotor and trigeminal nerve palsy after bilateral inferior turbinectomies. The probable aetiological mechanism is discussed.

Partial Inferior Turbinectomy Using the Microdébrider
The Journal of Otolaryngology, 2005A microdébrider was selected to accomplish partial inferior turbinectomy, allowing for controlled and rapid removal of hypertrophic soft tissue while preserving the general turbinate form.To assess the clinical outcome, healing, and any adverse consequences from the microdébrider partial turbinectomy procedure.A public hospital in north-central Israel ...

Laser Turbinectomy as an Adjunct to Rhinoseptoplasty
Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1985One hundred two inferior turbinectomies were done with the carbon dioxide laser as an adjunct to rhinoseptoplasty. Indications for surgery were airway obstruction on one or both sides not relieved by medical means (42 cases), patient inability to tolerate medication (36 cases), and patient unwillingness to continue to receive medication for prolonged ...

Judicious turbinectomy for nasal obstruction
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1973The operation of turbinectomy is discussed essentially as part of the total corrective operation for external deformity and nasal obstruction consequent on old injury. A rhinoplasty carried out at the same time as a septoplasty and turbinectomies can, in the writer's experience, be relied on to produce the best results as opposed to a two-stage ...

Laser-turbinectomy: long-term results
The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, 1999AbstractHypertrophy of the inferior turbinates is a common cause of nasal obstruction. Many cases respond to medical treatment with topical steroids or antihistamines. In some patients, however, this therapy is not sufficient and through the years many surgical procedures have been used to reduce the size of the inferior turbinates, but without any ...

Chronic Sinusitis: A Sequela of Inferior Turbinectomy
American Journal of Rhinology, 1998Inferior 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, 1990AbstractAs 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.

[Hemorrhagic complications of lower turbinectomy].
Revue de laryngologie - otologie - rhinologie, 1994Concerning 52 inferior turbinectomies, the authors analyse the haemorrhagic complications of these surgical operations. They deplore 4% of serious haemorrhages. These ones may immediately occur during the surgical operation or in the next 15 days. No technique can prevent an haemorrhage. So that the patient must be notified of the risks he runs and the
