[Possibilities of treating nasal turbinates in the framework of endonasal microsurgery].
Pathologic alterations of the turbinates are common in infectious diseases of the nose and paranasal sinuses. Over 300 patients were treated for paranasal sinuses disease from 1986 to 1989 by endonasal microsurgery. One-third of the patients were found intraoperatively to have alterations of the middle and inferior turbinate causing obstruction and functional disorders of the nose and sinuses. Our concept comprises a step-by-step microsurgical approach to the turbinates. The technique and the results are presented.
