Nasal breathing problems can be caused by many factors. Among them are the curvature of the nasal septum, and the presence of pathological neoplasms in the nasal cavity.
Polyps are one of the most common causes of respiratory problems in the nose, so the elimination of this problem is of great importance.
About the modern method of removing polyps – Shaver polypotomy for estet-portal.com was told by the candidate of medical sciences, otolaryngologist of the highest category, plastic surgeon Viktor Yushchenko.
Which ENT procedures do you consider the most difficult?
V.Yu.: One of the most complex ENT surgeries is endoscopic sinus surgeries, which are performed using special equipment. For them, endoscopes with different viewing angles are used - 0,30,45, 70 and even 90 degrees.
Sinus surgeries are performed using angled optics, which requires the surgeon to see and work in different planes, which makes it difficult to coordinate movements.
It is not easy to perform operations on the maxillary sinuses. Although they are quite superficial, they are accessed at 90 or even 120 degree angles.
Therefore, if you need to eliminate a neoplasm of the maxillary sinus, for example, a mycetoma, a cyst or a polyp, you have to excel. For such complex manipulations, we have a all necessary tools. Learn more:

What additional equipment do you use for nose surgery?
Working in the area of the nose and paranasal sinuses, we use a lot of related equipment, for example, a shaver. This is a special microrazor that is inserted into the nose under the control of an endoscope. With its help, certain formations that cause difficulty in nasal breathing are removed, after which they are immediately crushed and removed by vacuum suction from the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. Thus, we get a dry surgical field and excellent visibility, since the operation is almost bloodless. We also have & nbsp; endoscopes with different viewing angles, video camera, high-definition monitor permits, electric pump, electrocoagulator.
These are all high-tech instruments that are necessary for high-quality ENT operations.

What are the benefits of a shaver polypotomy for the patient?
To date, this procedure is indicated for all patients who need to have a nasal polyp removed. Shaver polypotomy is a step into the future.
All the leading clinics in the world use a shaver. The procedure makes it possible to minimize trauma to the tissues surrounding the pathological formation. Thus, the intervention becomes more targeted.
Previously, nasal loops and forceps were used, which required a lot of unnecessary movements, which led to damage to nearby tissues. Using a shaver, in the
Clinic Nove Tilo, we act specifically, purely on a pathological formation. Therefore, we remove the polyp without damaging healthy tissues, thereby shortening the rehabilitation period after surgery. If the operation is fast and without bleeding, we do not even pack the nose, increasing the level of comfort for the patient.
The hospital stay is also reduced as the risk of bleeding in the early postoperative period is minimized. Therefore, shaver polypotomy has a lot of advantages for both the doctor and the patient.
