Laser surgery in the management of sinonasal disease.
Better understanding of the pathophysiology of sinus disease, and improved technology and imaging modalities have changed nose and sinus surgery in recent years. Precise surgery of the ethmoid sinuses is now possible, improving ventilation and drainage of the sinuses. Newer technology has enhanced the scope of surgery and helped make sinus surgery safer.
