Micro debrider assisted FESS in Nasal polyposis surgery

This work was conducted on 40 patients with persistent sinonasal polyposis, despite a one-month trial of medical treatment. The patients were randomly assigned into two equal groups: Group A included 20 patients subjected to conventional FESS, while group B included 20 patients had their polyps removed by the use of microdebrider. Both groups were compared according to certain parameters including the intraoperative time, amount of blood loss, postoperative complication, postoperative healing and relief of symptoms. Microdebrider assisted FESS was found to decrease the intraoperative complications, has better postoperative healing and relief of symptoms
