Microdebrider Submucosal Resection of Turbinate in Bangalore

What is Microdebrider Submucosal Resection of Turbinate?

Microdebrider Submucosal Resection of Turbinate is a surgical procedure designed to relieve chronic nasal congestion and improve airflow by reducing the size of the nasal turbinates. Using a microdebrider, a specialized surgical instrument, the surgeon carefully removes excess tissue from the turbinates while preserving the mucosal lining. This technique is minimally invasive, targeting the submucosal layer to shrink the turbinates and open up the nasal passages, resulting in better breathing and reduced symptoms associated with nasal obstruction. The procedure is often recommended for individuals who haven't found relief through other treatments and are experiencing significant nasal blockage due to enlarged turbinates.

When is Microdebrider Submucosal Resection of Turbinate Recommended?

This procedure is recommended for individuals who experience:

• Chronic Nasal Congestion: Constant nasal blockage that affects breathing.
• Difficulty Breathing Through the Nose: Struggling to breathe through your nose, especially while sleeping.
• Frequent Sinus Infections: Repeated sinus infections caused by blocked nasal passages.
• Snoring or Sleep Apnea: Breathing problems at night that disrupt sleep.

If these symptoms persist despite trying medications and other treatments, Microdebrider Submucosal Resection might be the best option for you.
