Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To study the curative effect of endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS). METHOD: The clinical data of ESS on 40 cases(70 sides) of chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps were analyzed. RESULT: In 34 of the 40 cases followed up over six months, 25 cases(73.5%) were cured, 7 cases(20.6%) were improved, 2 cases(5.9%) were ineffective. The effective rate was 94.1%. The serious operation complication was absent. Bleeding after operation was found in 1 case, middle turbinate synechiae with nasal septum were found in 2 cases. CONCLUSION: ESS is effective in the treatment of chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps. The success of operation is directly related to the excellent surgical skills. A regularly follow up and cleaning to the operation cavity after operation are important elements for securing optimal long-term result.
