Sinus surgery: optimal surgery, optimal outcome?

Sinus surgery: optimal surgery, optimal outcome?

Rhinology. 2016 Mar 12;

Authors: Fokkens WJ

Abstract
Sinus surgery remains an issue of discussion. We lack data on a number of important issues. In this issue of the journal Jiang et al. show that 67 % of their patients who underwent FESS for CRS had OSAS (of which more than half moderate to severe) but only 38% complained of daytime sleepiness irrespective of BMI. The OSAS was also not correlated with the severity of rhinosinusitis, SNOT-20 score, nasal obstruction score, en- doscopic score, CT score, and smell function. It could be an argument for FESS although unfortunately the authors did not report whether the OSAS decreased after FESS.
