Combination therapy of plasma radiofrequency ablation at low temperature and nasal endoscopy for chronic na-sal sinusitis / 局解手术学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the curative effect of combination therapy of low-temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation and nasal endoscopy for chronic nasal sinusitis. Methods From January 2010 to January 2012,98 patients with chronic nasal sinusitis in our hospital were ramdomly divided into observation group and control group. The observation group (49 cases) received plasma radiofrequency ablation at low temperature combined nasal endoscopic treatment. The control group (49 cases) were performed only nasal endoscopic treatment. The curative effect of the 2 groups were compared. Results After 1 month and 1 year, the total effective rate of the observation group were 91. 84% and 89. 80%, the total effective rate of the control group were 77. 55% and 73. 47% respectively. To compare the total effective rate of 2 groups were compared,there were statistically significant differences(P<0. 05). Conclusion Curative effect of plasma radiofrequency ablation at low temperature and nasal endoscopy is distinct,it is worthy of being widely applied in clinic.
