Maxillary sinus surgery
Surgical treatment of chronic or complicated maxillary sinusitis with restoration of maxillary sinus drainage.
The maxillary sinuses are the largest of the nasal sinuses. During periods of inflammation, the nasal cavities fill with mucus, pus, or other pathological formations, which can hinder nasal breathing. Surgical intervention is recommended when drug treatment proves ineffective, particularly in cases of chronic, recurrent, or odontogenic maxillary sinusitis.
This procedure is designed to remove purulent or cystic contents, polyps, foreign bodies, residual filling material, or tumor formations from the sinus, aiming to restore normal ventilation. Endoscopic access minimizes trauma and accelerates recovery.
Preoperative evaluation includes a thorough physical examination, CT scan of the sinuses, complete blood count, biochemical blood tests, coagulogram, and otorhinolaryngologist consultation.
The surgeon carefully opens access to the maxillary sinus through the nasal passage and inserts an endoscope with a camera. Mucus, pus, polyps, cysts, residual filling material, foreign bodies, and other formations are removed. Oroantral fistula is repaired if present. All actions are visually monitored in real time on the screen. After the cavity is sanitized, surgery is completed without external sutures.
We use an advanced endoscopic system with high-resolution optics to perform the surgery. This equipment helps perform the intervention as accurately and safely as possible.
The patient can go home the same day after the surgery. It is then necessary to take a prescribed course of antibiotics, use medications for nasal lavage, and avoid overexertion. Your healthcare provider will also make recommendations regarding your diet, lifestyle, and nasal care. It takes between seven and ten days for breathing to be fully restored.
