Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study the causes of recurrent sinusitis and polyps after endoscopic sinus surgery and discuss the relative factors to affect the outcome of revision endoscopic sinus surgery. METHODS Revision endoscopic sinus surgery were performed on 54 cases with recurrent sinusitis and polyps by using the Messerklinger technique and Stryker debrider. RESULTS Follow-up for more than 6 months, 34 cases were cured (63.0 %) and 14 improved (25.9 %) with the total effective rate of 88.9%. The other 6 cases were ineffective (11.1%). Among 54 cases, orbital hematoma occurred in 1 patient after operation, but no cerebrospinal fistula and other serious complication occurred. CONCLUSION Sufficient and appropriate perioperative treatment, being familiar with the important anatomic structures and mastering excellent endoscopic surgical skill are the keys to improve the effective rate of revision endoscopic sinus surgery.
