What is Endoscopic Sinus Surgery?
Endoscopic sinus surgery is a minimally invasive surgical intervention to treat blockages, polyps, inflammation or tumors in the sinuses. This surgical technique allows the sinuses to open and restore natural drainage pathways. Endoscopic sinus surgery is performed through the nostrils, as the sinuses are located close to the nasal cavity. Thanks to endoscopic devices, the sinuses can be directly monitored and problem areas can be treated precisely. Unlike traditional surgery, this method is performed through smaller incisions and patients have a much shorter recovery time.

How is Endoscopic Sinus Surgery Performed?
Endoscopic sinus surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia. The surgeon accesses the sinuses with an endoscopic camera and surgical instruments through the nostrils or sometimes through the upper part of the mouth. Blockages, polyps, infected tissue and other obstructions in the sinuses are carefully removed. This allows the sinuses to drain naturally and reduces the risk of inflammation.

1. Preparation and Imaging: Before endoscopic sinus surgery, the condition of the sinuses is evaluated with imaging techniques such as computed tomography (CT) or endoscopic nasal examination. The surgeon determines which parts of the sinuses have problems.
2. Surgical Intervention: Endoscopic cameras and special surgical instruments are used to unblock the sinuses and clean the infected areas. Polyps or infected tissues in the sinuses are precisely removed.
3. Recovery and Follow-up: Patients usually have a short recovery period after endoscopic sinus surgery. Thanks to the small interventions in the operation area, no stitches are required and patients can quickly return to their normal lives.

Conditions and Symptoms Requiring Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
Endoscopic sinus surgery is usually performed in the following cases:

• Chronic Sinusitis: Long-standing sinus inflammation and infections.
• Sinus Polyps Inflammatory tissues in the sinuses that grow and cause blockage.
• Nasal Congestion Constant nasal congestion and difficulty breathing.
• Headaches and facial pain: Headaches caused by blockages in the sinuses.
• Nasal Discharge: Especially yellow-green, foul-smelling nasal discharge.
• Sinus Infections Not Responding to Treatment: Sinus infections that persist despite medication.
