title: The role of propofol as a general anaesthetic agent in surgery for sinonasal diseases.
abstract: Propofol is known to he a better drug when used for induction of general anaesthesia. But when it is used for induction as well as maintenance of general anaesthesia in the surgery for sinonasal diseases, it significantly reduces the blood loss thereby improving the risibility of the endonasal structures and minimises the chance of complications related to endoseopic sinus surgery.
