Microdebrider-assisted versus radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinoplasty.
OBJECTIVES The study aimed to evaluate the long-term efficacy of microdebrider-assisted inferior turbinoplasty (MAIT) compared to radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinoplasty (RAIT) for hypertrophic inferior turbinates. STUDY DESIGN Surgical outcomes were evaluated using the visual analogue scale, anterior rhinomanometry, and saccharin test results. METHODS From January 2001 to December 2...
متن کاملMicrodebrider-assisted versus radiofrequency-assisted inferior turbinoplasty: a prospective study with objective and subjective outcome measures.
In order to relieve the symptoms of nasal obstruction in patients with inferior turbinate hypertrophy, various surgical methods have been used. Aim of this study was to compare post-operative outcome between radiofrequency and microdebrider-assisted partial turbinoplasty. A prospective study was performed in 268 patients with nasal obstruction and hypertrophied turbinate mucosa refractory to me...
متن کاملPower microdebrider-assisted modification of endoscopic inferior turbinoplasty: a preliminary report.
BACKGROUND In this article, microdebrider-assisted modification of endoscopic inferior turbinoplasty is described. It has the advantage of superior visualization during elevation of the mucosal flap and allows precise tailoring of the resection to the needs of patients. METHODS From November 2001 to December 2002, 29 patients with chronic hypertrophic rhinitis treated with power endoscopic in...
متن کاملEfficacy of intra- and extraturbinal microdebrider turbinoplasty in perennial allergic rhinitis.
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS Microdebrider-assisted inferior turbinoplasty (MAIT) has become a popular method for relieving symptoms of allergic rhinitis and can be performed intraturbinally or extraturbinally. The objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the long-term efficacy of these two methods. STUDY DESIGN Prospective randomized study. METHODS Sixty patients diagnosed with perenni...
متن کاملComparison of Radiofrequency Thermal Ablation and Microdebrider-Assisted Turbinoplasty in Inferior Turbinate Hypertrophy: A Prospective, Randomized, and Clinical Study.
Objective To compare the effectiveness of radiofrequency thermal ablation with those of microdebrider-assisted turbinoplasty, we designed a prospective, randomized clinical study. Methods Forty patients suffering from nasal obstruction due to bilateral inferior turbinate hypertrophy were enrolled. Half of the patients were operated by radiofrequency thermal ablation, while the other half unde...
