Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The indications, management, and results are discussed in 45 patients who underwent the concurrent functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) and rhinoplasty. STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective clinical study. PATIENTS AND METHODS: There were 27 women and 18 men with a mean age of 28 years. 28 patients had chronic rhinosinusitis and 17 patients had nasal polyposis refractory to medical therapy underwent the combined procedure by the same otolaryngologist. RESULTS: A review of our 45 combined procedure performed between 2000 and 2005. There were no life-threatening severe complications noted in this population. The patients were also satisfied with the aesthetic outcome. CONCLUSION: Combined rhinoplasty and endoscopic sinus surgery can be performed safely, cost- effectively and with perfect results in selected patients.
