Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to compare the effects of radiofrequency ablation and microdebrider reduction in lower turbinate surgery on nasal physiology. Patients and Methods: Between January 2009 and March 2010, 40 patients with the complaint of nasal obstruction, who were diagnosed with lower turbinate hypertrophy, were randomly assigned into two groups to undergo either radiofrequency group 1, n=20 or microdebrider group 2, n=20 treatments. Nasal obstruction, the grade of turbinate hypertrophy and other symptoms were evaluated with subjective nasal obstruction scale and anterior rhinoscopy before the operation, and three days, seven days, four weeks, and eight weeks after the surgical intervention. Results: The patients in group 2 had a significantly greater symptomatic improvement based on subjective nasal obstruction scale SNOS scores than the patients in group 1 p0.05 . Conclusion: Based on these results, both radiofrequency ablation and microdebrider reduction may be considered as minimally invasive, straightforward, and reliable methods that provide sufficient airway passage without disruption of the nasal physiology.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada alt konka cerrahisinde radyofrekans ablasyon ve mikrodebrider redüksiyon yöntemlerinin nazal fizyoloji üzerine etkileri karşılaştırıldı.Hastalar ve Yöntemler: Ocak 2009 ve Mart 2010 tarihleri arasında alt konka hipertrofisi tanısı konulmuş ve burun tıkanıklığı yakınması olan 40 hasta randomize olarak radyofrekans grup 1, n=20 ya da mikrodebrider grup 2, n=20 ile tedavi edilmek üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Burun tıkanıklığı, alt konka hipertrofisinin derecesi ve diğer semptomlar subjektif burun tıkanıklığı skalası ve anterior rinoskopi ile ameliyat öncesi ve cerrahi girişim sonrasındaki üçüncü gün, yedinci gün, dördüncü hafta ve sekizinci haftalarda incelendi.Bulgular: Subjektif nazal obstrüksiyon ölçeği SNOS skorlarına dayanarak grup 2’deki hastalarda grup 1’deki hastalardan daha fazla semptomatik iyileşme vardı p
