Therapeutic performance of nasal and paranasal operations in recent years.
In this survey of the postoperative therapeutic performance of 555 cases of nasal surgery, particularly conservative fiberscopic endonasal sinusectomy, it was found that conservative nasal operations accounted for 87.8% of the entire sample population and the therapeutic effects, (in terms of subjective symptoms) were found to be favorable in 91.5% of cases. These results suggest that conservative nasal operations will become the dominant form of nasal surgery in the future.
