[Revision endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic sinusitis and polyps].
Zhonghua Er Bi Yan Hou Ke za Zhi 2002 August
OBJECTIVE: To investigate common reasons for revision endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS) and evaluate the effect of RESS.
METHODS: Before the revision surgery 114 patients were examined by CT scans and nasal endoscopy, after surgery all the patients were followed up for more than 2 years.
RESULTS: There were 16 cases of recurrence of polyps, 98 cases of recurrence of sinusitis. Among 114 cases there were 18 cases of anterior ethmoid sinus disease, 2 frontal recess stenosis, 31 anterior ethmoid sinuse disease with maxillary ostium obstruction, 6 middle turbinate adhesion, 18 posterior ethmoid sinus disease, 36 posterior ethmoid sinus disease with sphenoid sinus disease, 3 isolated sphenoid sinusitis. There were 15 cases with septal deviation. 99 cases were successful and 15 unsatisfied.
CONCLUSION: Sinus disease that was not completely resected during the original surgical procedure due to the surgeon's less experience was the most common reason for the RESS, another reason was recurrent polyposis. The results were very rewarding except nasal polyposis.
