Treatment of inferior turbinate hypertrophy: a randomized clinical trial.

We analyzed the long-term efficacy of 6 of these surgical techniques (turbinectomy, laser cautery, electrocautery, cryotherapy, submucosal resection, and submucosal resection with lateral displacement) over a 6-year follow-up period. We randomly divided 382 patients into 6 therapeutic groups and surgica...

متن کاملEffect of septoplasty on inferior turbinate hypertrophy.
OBJECTIVE To measure the effect of septoplasty on the volume of inferior turbinate in patients with a deviated nasal septum. DESIGN In this retrospective analysis, patients who underwent septoplasty without turbinate surgery from May 1, 2003, through April 30, 2006, were studied. The thicknesses and cross-sectional areas of mucosa and conchal bones were measured with computed tomography befor...
