摘要
Synechiae formation is a frequent occurrence after endoscopic sinus surgery and may cause symptomatic sinus outflow tract obstruction. Various means are used to reduce the incidence of synechiae formation, These include meticulous operative technique, partial middle turbinate resection, middle meatus spacers or stents, and postoperative debridement, The microdebrider is a powered rotary shaving device that precisely resects tissue, minimizing inadvertent mucosal trauma and stripping. We present 40 cases of endoscopic sinus surgery performed with the microdebrider, Patients had at least a 5-month follow-up and demonstrated rapid mucosal healing, minimal crust formation, and a low incidence of synechiae formation, These initial data suggest that the microdebrider may be advantageous in surgery for chronic sinusitis.
