چکیده

In most surgical training systems, task completion time and error ratio are common metrics of surgical skill. To avoid applying unnecessary and injurious force to the tissue, surgeons must know for themselves how much force they are exerting as they handle surgical tools. Our goal is to develop an endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) training system that quantitatively evaluates the trainee's surgical skills. In this paper, we present an ESS training system with force sensors for surgical skill evaluation. Our experiment revealed that the integral of the force data can also be one of the useful metrics of surgical skill.

Evaluation of Topical Tranexamic Acid on Intraoperative Bleeding in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

Tranexamic acid (TA) is an antifibrinolytic agent which reduces bleeding following certain surgical procedures. The present study was performed on 56 patients, scheduled for elective endoscopic sinus surgery under general anesthesia, to examine the effects of topical TA on providing a bloodless surgical field and evaluate the bleeding volume. The study comprised 26 patients who received topical...

ALLERGIC FUNGAL SINUSITIS AMONG CANDIDATES FOR FUNCTIONAL ENDOSCOPIC SINUS SURGERY (FESS) IN SARI (IRAN)

Allergic fungal sinusitis (AFS) has been clinicopathologically defined as a noninvasive form of fungal infection. This study was designed to distinguish AFS among patients with chronic sinusitis who failed to respond to repeated courses of antibiotics and were therefore candidates for functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in Sari. Allergic mucin and sinus lavage was collected during F...
