Ball valve nasal obstruction following incomplete inferior turbinectomy.
An interesting case is presented of a 53-year-old male who was seen with a 10-year history of intermittent, unilateral nasal obstruction following a bilateral total inferior turbinectomy. A pedunculated mass was seen in the right posterior nasal space acting as a ball valve. This was removed and found to be residual turbinate tissue.
متن کاملInferior Turbinectomy: An Unusual Presentation of Complication of Nasotracheal Intubation
This article describes a case of accidental turbinectomy encountered at the time of tracheal intubation while inducing anesthesia at the time of an elective surgery. This is a rare complication in the field of anesthesia with very few reported cases till date. The article highlights the complications which were encountered due to the accidental turbinectomy and thereafter discusses the methods ...

متن کاملImpact of Middle versus Inferior Total Turbinectomy on Nasal Aerodynamics.
OBJECTIVES This computational study aims to (1) use virtual surgery to theoretically investigate the maximum possible change in nasal aerodynamics after turbinate surgery, (2) quantify the relative contributions of the middle and inferior turbinates to nasal resistance and air conditioning, and (3) quantify to what extent total turbinectomy impairs the nasal air-conditioning capacity. STUDY D...
متن کاملHow we do it: radiofrequency-turbinectomy for nasal obstruction symptoms.
Radiofrequency energy has been reported to be effective to reduce nasal obstruction because of inferior turbinate hypertrophy. A total of 158 patients who had undergone such surgery are reported. Three to 30 months postoperatively 85% of the patients reported a marked decrease in nasal obstruction. This was irrespective of a short-term or a long-term follow-up, and was applicable to patients th...
