Abstract

KEY POINTS: Expanded types of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) significantly improve quality of life and reduce revision surgeries rates, supporting their early application for moderate-to-severe cases. Minimal clinically important difference may play as a crucial role in defining surgical treatment response (i.e., responder and super-responder conditions). Expanded FESS benefits patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps but more data are required to have a clearer understanding of its uses due to varied approaches and reported outcomes in the literature.
