A good candidate for functional endoscopic surgery is someone who has acute or chronic sinusitis. This procedure is the most common type of sinus surgery and is usually performed under general anesthesia. It is a minimally invasive procedure in which the sinus air cells are opened to increase sinus airflow.
Image-Guided Surgery (IGS)
The most suitable candidate for Image-guided Surgery is someone who has two to four sinus infections per year, or infection lasting for at least 12 weeks, despite attempts to treat it. Using a 3-dimensional visualization system, IGS is commonly used for revision surgeries, Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery and some types of Balloon Sinuplasty.
Balloon Sinuplasty
Balloon sinuplasty is used to treat severe sinus inflammation. This procedure uses a small balloon catheter to open up blocked sinus passages and increase airflow.
Open Sinus Surgery
Open Sinus Surgery is used on candidates that require more extensive work. This type of sinus surgery is done through small incisions in the skin, usually on the upper lip or inside the nostrils, where Dr. Mourad will be able to access the sinuses directly.
Transoral Endoscopic Surgery
