FESS
The FESS procedure is recommended for chronic sinusitis. Its purpose is to remove the ethmoidal cells and polyps from the maxillary, frontal, and sphenoid sinuses, as well as inflammatory tissue, abnormal bony septa, and to unblock the natural openings of the sinuses. During the surgery, the sinuses are flushed, and pathological secretions such as pus, fungal masses, or stagnant fluids are removed. If necessary, the procedure may also include straightening the nasal septum and reducing the inferior turbinates. The operation is always performed under general anesthesia.
The procedure restores nasal patency, improves sinus ventilation, and may enhance the sense of smell, provided that the loss of smell has not persisted for many years. It can also alleviate sinus-related headaches. However, it is important to remember that the surgery does not prevent the regrowth of polyps in cases of allergies and is not effective in treating chronic post-nasal drip.
Price information
The final price depends on the scope of the procedure, including whether it is the first treatment or a follow-up, whether it will be combined with other procedures, and the type of anesthesia used. The patient will be informed of the final price during the consultation.
The price includes: clinic stay, procedure, anesthesia, dressings, pre- and post-procedure care, suture removal, and follow-up visits.
