Septoplasty with FESS in Nizamabad

When is Septoplasty with FESS Recommended?

This combined procedure is typically recommended for individuals in Nizamabad who experience:

• Deviated Septum: A condition where the nasal septum is crooked, causing difficulty in breathing through one or both nostrils.
• Chronic Sinusitis: Persistent inflammation of the sinuses that leads to frequent infections, nasal congestion, and facial pain.
• Nasal Obstruction: Blocked nasal passages that interfere with normal breathing.
• Recurrent Sinus Infections: Frequent sinus infections that don’t respond to medication and other treatments.

If you’re experiencing these symptoms, Septoplasty with FESS may be necessary to improve nasal function and resolve sinus issues.
 

How to Prepare for the Procedure

At Medfin in Nizamabad, we guide you through the preparation process for Septoplasty with FESS:

• Initial Consultation: You’ll meet with our ENT specialists to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and the need for surgery.
• Imaging Tests: A CT scan or endoscopy may be performed to assess the severity of the septal deviation and sinus blockages.
• Medication Review: Inform your doctor about any medications you’re taking, as some may need to be adjusted before the procedure.
• Fasting Guidelines: You may be instructed to fast for several hours before the surgery, especially if general anesthesia is planned.

How the Procedure is Performed

At Medfin in Nizamabad, Septoplasty with FESS is performed with precision and care:

• Anesthesia: The procedure is usually done under general anesthesia to ensure comfort throughout the surgery.
• Septoplasty: The surgeon will first straighten the deviated nasal septum by removing or repositioning the crooked cartilage and bone.
• FESS: Using an endoscope, the surgeon will then access the sinuses through the nostrils to remove any blockages, such as polyps or inflamed tissue, and to open up the sinus drainage pathways.
• Completion: Once the septum is corrected and the sinuses are treated, the nasal passages are packed with soft splints or dressings to support healing. The procedure typically takes 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity.

Risks of the Procedure

While Septoplasty with FESS at Medfin is generally safe, there are some risks to be aware of:

• Bleeding: Some bleeding is common after the procedure, but it is usually minor and easily controlled.
• Infection: There is a small risk of infection, which can be minimized with proper post-operative care.
• Scarring: Internal scarring may occur, which could affect nasal function, but this is rare.
• Persistent Symptoms: In rare cases, symptoms may persist or recur, requiring further treatment.
