Popis: Endoscopic sinus surgery has grown in popularity since its introduction in 1985. This procedure can be used to correct mechanical or structural dysfunction of the sinus to restore proper drainage and adequate ventilation. The surgical technique may be performed by direct visualization through the endoscope or by an indirect method using the video monitor. Patient outcomes have been improved through this less invasive procedure by decreased hospitalization time, decreased recovery time, and quicker return to normal activities of daily living.
