Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS)

• FESS – As the name suggests it is a surgery performed with an endoscope to restore functioning of sinuses (in those patients suffering from Chronic Sinusitis, Allergic Fungal Sinusitis, Sinonasal Polyps, Tumors etc).
• The advantages of use of the endoscopes are better illumination, magnification, visualization which allows the surgeon for complete disease clearance.
• As it is a minimally invasive technique it scores over the traditional, conventional surgeries as there is less morbidity, faster healing thereby leading to early resumption of routine activities.
