In nearly all cases, the medial aspect of the concha bullosa attaches to the cribriform plate, so that the lateral wall is typically removed during resection (Fig. 2.7). ▪ Crushing of a concha bullosa may provide only temporary reduction and may impair drainage of the mucus created within ...

Removal of all or part of the inferior turbinate is common because of its role in nasal obstruction. Inferior turbinate hypertrophy in allergic rhinitis is often managed with intranasal steroid and antihistamine sprays. Surgical reduction of the inferior turbinates is necessary when medical management p...
The septal deviation angle (SDA) and the presence of concha bullosa (CB) were determined. Results A significant difference was observed in the anterior, middle, posterior, and mean widths between HT and NHT (p < 0.001). There was a significant difference in the widths of the HT and ...
A CT scan showed septal deviation to the right and a large concha bullosa, obstructing the right osteomeatal complex. The maxillary sinus appeared completely opacified. Surgical intervention was planned in terms of septoplasty, concha bullosa reduction and right middle meatal antrostomy. The patient ...
There was no recurrance in long-term outcomes. This method can be used in all types of concha bullosa effectively and provides more volume reduction in bulbous type concha bullosa.doi:10.1007/s00405-016-4097-zKoak, lkerGkler, OzanDoan, Remzi...
Introduction Although many surgical techniques exist to manage obstructive concha bullosa, there continues to be a drive to find the least invasive technique with the fewest complications and best results. Objectives The purpose of this study is to describe and assess the short- and long-term ...
