Septoplasty may be required to correct a devi­ated nasal septum for the following:
• Irreversible symptomatic nasal obstruction
• Improving access for endoscopic sinus or
skull base surgery
• Septal spurs causing epistaxis
32.10 Complications
ofSeptoplasty
• Septal hematoma.
• Epistaxis from raw mucosal edges.
• Septal perforation: Bilateral opposing mucosal
tears, excessive packing and septal hematoma.
• Nasal obstruction can be caused due to inade-
quate correction of septal deformity and syn-
echiae from opposing, traumatized septal and
inferior turbinate mucosal surfaces.
• Nasal deformity occurs from excessive
removal of cartilage and preserving too little
dorsal or caudal cartilage struts.

and epistaxis; these are consequences of disrup­tion of laminar airow and its destructive effect on the nasal tissues.
The usual mechanism for developing a septal perforation is disruption of blood ow and isch­emia of the septum. Despite its rich blood supply; perforations most commonly involve the anterior septum.
Treatment is mainly conservative by mois­turizing the nasal mucosa with saline irrigation and topical ointments. Surgery is necessary only for patients who fail conservative treat­ment and are symptomatic. When septal perfo­rations are related to an active disease, e.g., vasculitis, malignancy, or infection, treatment should be directed at the underlying disease process. Only once the etiology is controlled the treatment can be tailored to the extent of the symptomatology.
The most common causes of nasal septal perfora­tions are trauma, iatrogenic, e.g., septoplasty, and pharmacologic, e.g., intranasal corticosteroids and cocaine abuse. Other etiologies such as vas­culitis, malignancy, and infection should be con­sidered when investigating a patient when a cause is not apparent (Fig.32.3).
The majority of septal perforations are asymp­tomatic. Some of the most troublesome signs and symptoms include a whistling sound, crusting,

32.14 The Turbinates
The inferior turbinate is an embryologically inde­pendent structure.
The inferior turbinate consists of a supporting cancellous conchal bone which is attached along the inferolateral aspect of the nasal cavity and extending from the interior nasal valve to just anterior to the Eustachian tube. The turbinate is covered by a ciliated pseudostratied respiratory mucosa that is supported by a lamina propria and specialized erectile mucosa with vascular chan­nels and venous sinusoids which serve to warm and humidify air, modify nasal airow resistance and maintain linear rather than turbulent air ow within the nose.
The blood supply to the inferior turbinates is from the lateral branch of the sphenopalatine artery that enters the posterior aspect of the turbi­nate. Sensation is supplied by the trigeminal nerve; sympathetic nerves travel along the feed­ing arterial blood vessels; the parasympathetic supply also travels along the vascular supply but travels along the vidian nerve before entering the nose through the sphenopalatine foramen.
The normal inferior turbinate is a dynamic structure that varies in size according to the
degree of congestion. Congestion is determined by the control of blood owing through the spe­cialized erectile tissue. This change is governed by the autonomic neural supply:
• The sympathetic nerves induce reduction of blood ow and a decrease in volume.
• The parasympathetic supply congests the erectile tissue of the turbinate.
The degree of congestion varies in a cyclical
manner in a healthy nose every few hours and is coordinated so that when one side is congested the other is constricted. This phenomenon is known as the nasal cycle.
The septum deviation itself gives rise for com-
pensatory changes in the nose; an atrophy of the nasal turbinate on the convex side while the nasal turbinates on the concave side enlarge. The turbi­nates regulate the nasal air stream in a way that further functions like warming up and moisten­ing are fullled even in the deviated nose.
Three different variations of inferior turbi-
nates are often encountered; these include [13]:
• Bony: Bony turbinate hypertrophy is usually caused by a prominent (broad) inferolateral turn of the turbinate; it is very large but nor­mally shaped obstructing inferior turbinates are also described.
• Soft tissue: very common and represents the majority of cases of inferior turbinate hyper­trophy. The common underlying pathophysi­ology in soft tissue hypertrophy is chronic rhinitis and other conditions that cause chronic mucosal inammation.
• Mixed hypertrophy: involves anatomic bony hypertrophy in the setting of chronic rhinitis.
Pneumatization of the inferior turbinate may
cause inferior turbinate hypertrophy, which leads to nasal obstruction.

• Allows for precise and targeted removal which aims to reduce the bulk of the submucosal erectile tissue of the turbinate without injury to the epithelium
• Reduction focused on the anterior half of the turbinates (nasal valve) which contributes mostly to the air ow resistance
• Resection of the posterior part associated with higher risks of bleeding due to the arterial supply by the sphenopalatine artery
• Indicated when the bony component is the major contributor to the patient’s turbinate hypertrophy
• Submucosal resection of the bone
• Ranges from limited resection of the anterior aspect of the turbinate to total resections
• Extensive subtotal or total resections have been suspected to predispose one to a paradoxic nasal obstruction or atrophic rhinitis

Take Home Messages
• The nasal cavity is highly vascular, and this serves multiple functions.
• A nasal septal deviation is considered pathological once it has subjective reduc­tion of the nasal breathing, so not all devi­ations need to be assessed surgically.
• Multiple approaches can be used to address nasal blockage and it is different from one patient to another.
• Nasal septal and turbinates surgeries are simple procedures but can carry devas­tating complications.

33.1 Introduction
The history of endoscopic sinus surgery return to early 1901 when HIRSCHMANN started using a modied cystoscope after that Maltz bring the name of the sinocopy to the world. The surgery started to improve and clarify year by year with the appearance of many interested rhinologist in the USA and Europe like Messerklinger, Stammberger, and Kennedy. Most of them assume that the endo­scopic sinus surgery should be directed toward dealing with the diseased mucosa and preserving the normal tissue as much as possible. With further advancement of technology and continuous study of the anatomy and physiology of sinonasal region, the surgery started to be tailored according to the site of disease. Many nomenclatures then appear like MIST (minimal invasive sinus technique) and FESS (functional endoscopic sinus surgery), all of which directed toward mucosal preservation and avoidance of any unwanted mucosal stripping. Anteroposterior and posteroanterior dissection are the most followed technique in endoscopic sinus surgery. The presence of new instruments, pow­ered devices like microdebrider, various angled telescopes, and navigation system make the sur-

gery more interesting and challenging, with the proximity of vital structures like skull base, optic nerve, and carotid artery. It is now necessary for the surgeon to be familiar with anatomical varia­tions and instrumentation to avoid injury to these vital structures.
33.2 Position ofthePatient
andtheSurgeon
Each step in the patient and surgeon positioning is important and designed to make the surgery smooth. First of all, the surgeon has to sit or stand at the right side of the patient. The sur­geon can use a mayo stand to rest his arm. The patient should be laying on a supine position while the operating table is tilted 30° anti-Tren­delenburg. Patient’s head has to be in a neutral position. The monitor, patient’s head, and the surgeon have to be in a straight line. It is not a routine to sterilize the nose before the ESS; however, sterile drape is recommended with leaving the eyes exposed (it’s advisable to use topical eye ointment to avoid dryness during surgery). The surgeon can turn the head of the patient to either direction for better angle and eld. The scrub nurse should position their instrument table parallel to the head.

33.3 Nasal Preparation andVasoconstriction
There are different materials and medications used in nasal preparation. The choice depends on the surgeon preference, patient’s allergic history or comorbidities, and medications availability. For the nasal preparation, different packing can be used, e.g., neurosurgical patties or cotton ball. The communication with the anesthetist about the medications is the most important thing to do prior to the packing. Nasal preparation can be started by using a counted number of packs soaked with 1% oxymetazoline or cocaine in the nose for few min­utes. If no contraindications, the lidocaine-adrena­line combination is drug of choice for inltration; however, the concentration will be adjusted according to the patient. The area above the ante­rior end of the middle turbinate and the back end of the middle turbinate in the region of the spheno­palatine artery are injected. Another injections can be done in the anterior wall of the bulla, greater palatine foramen, and even the polyps itself.

33.4 Surgical Steps
33.4.1 Uncinectomy
The entrance to the endoscopic sinus surgery usu­ally occurs from the uncinate door. Uncinectomy (aka infundibulotomy) usually began with iden­tication of the posterior free border of this sickle shaped structure by an angled ball probe or curette at the same time the probe is advanced superiorly to identify the variable attachment of the superior end of the uncinate. The whole unci­nate (Fig.33.1 white arrow) should be removed otherwise there is risk of ESS failure and orbital injury. The techniques of uncinate removal are variable, all of them are aimed to complete exci­sion of the uncinate and identication of the natural maxillary ostium. Swing door technique is our favorable technique [1] which began with making a cut in the middle 1/3 of the anterior attachment of the uncinate by the sickle knife or by size 11 blade, then it is advanced superiorly and inferiorly to free the attachment of uncinate,

of maxilla [2] which is a hard bone, then remove the remaining part of the uncinate between the two cuts by straight Blakesley forceps. The bone of the horizontal part of the uncinate which passes inferiorly to natural maxillary ostium is dissected free from the mucosa. Now the natu­ral maxillary ostium (Fig. 33.1 yellow asterisk) can be easily identied by angled degree or even by zero degree endoscope. Another technique to remove the uncinate is by removing a small por­tion of the uncinate by through-cutting backbiter to create a raw edge, then completely removing the bone either by microdebrider or upward and downward angled through-cutting Blakesley for­ceps. Using microdebrider allows trimming these edges without exposing the bone and thus allows healing by primary intention without scaring.
Pitfalls in Uncinectomy
• Take care of the variable attachment of superior end of the uncinate.
• Be aware of the atelectatic uncinate as in case of silent maxillary syndrome where the risk of orbital injury is high, so try retrograde excision rather than anterior one.
• Palpate the lateral nasal wall to identify the uncinate which considered a slightly mobile bone unlike the frontal process of maxilla to avoid injury to nasolacri­mal duct.

33.4.2 Middle Meatal Antrostomy
After completing dissection of the horizontal part of the uncinate process, the natural maxillary ostium can now be easily visualized in the opened infundibulum (Fig. 33.3); it is an oval shaped mucosal opening with oblique orientation; its superior margin marks the junction between orbital oor and the lamina papyracea. In case of minimal sinus disease, the natural ostium can be only stretched with ball probe of sucker without removing the mucosa while if there is extensive mucosal disease or in presence of accessory max-

illary ostium (Fig. 33.4); here it should be enlarged and connected to the accessory ostium to avoid the chance of circular mucus ow. The optimal size of the enlarged ostium is variable and may be tailored to the severity of the disease. The enlargement can be started with using back­biter forceps which engage the anterior lip of the ostium and start cutting till fell a hard bone which

represents the nasolacrimal duct system, then the ostium can be enlarged posteriorly but take care of the sphenopalatine artery which may be injured far posteriorly [3]. Inferior enlargement can also be done by down-biting forceps; here also avoid injury to superior surface of inferior turbinate which may lead to more bleeding. Now with angled endoscope the interior of the maxil­lary sinus can be visualized entirely.
Pitfalls on MMA
• Don’t widen the maxillary ostium far posteriorly or far anteriorly.
• Keep the orbital oor your superior limit.
• Try to distinguish between accessory and the natural maxillary ostium.
33.4.3 Anterior Ethmoidectomy
Ethmoidal bulla (Figs.33.5 and 33.6) is the larg­est and the most constant anterior ethmoidal cell. Its size and degree of pneumatization is variable so as its superior extension, its roof may be con­tinuous with the skull base and may house the

anterior ethmoidal artery or it may leave as a space above it known as suprabullar recess and here the anterior ethmoidal artery may run within the skull base or in isolated mesentery hanging downward. Rarely the anterior ethmoidal artery runs on the anterior surface of the bulla. Ethmoidal bulla located posterior to uncinate process and separated from it by hiatus semilunaris inferior (Fig. 33.5). Its natural ostium opens postero­medially [4] and it can be identied after excision of the anterior wall. Entrance to the bulla starts with puncturing it infero-medially to be away from the roof and the lateral wall which is repre­sented by the lamina papyracea by using angled ball probe, angled curette, or even a suction tube. Then start removal of the remaining walls by either angled through-cutting Blakesley or shaver and try to stay away from the lamina papyracea which marks the lateral limit of dissection. It is recommended to compress the eyeball gently and dissect the bulla to highlight the lamina papyra­cea and to be sure you are away from the eye. At the same time you may leave a thin rim on the antero-lateral junction which may be used as landmark for dissection if you lost during dissec­tion as it represents second ethmoturbinals after the rst one (uncinate process). After completing the excision of the uncinate and the bulla, now the natural maxillary ostium, the basal lamella, and the frontal recess will be demonstrated clearly.

33 Pitfalls andPearls inEndoscopic Sinus Surgery
Pitfalls on Anterior Ethmoidectomy
• Puncture the bulla infero-medially.
• Read the CT scan well before surgery to know the expected location of AEA.
• Take care of the haller cell.
33.4.4 Posterior Ethmoidectomy
The transition between anterior (frontal, maxillary, and anterior ethmoidal) sinuses to the posterior (posterior ethmoid and sphenoid) sinuses consid­ered the cornerstone of endoscopic sinus surgery. The basal lamella or the ground lamella can be regarded as the second oblique part of the middle turbinate and represent the bridge between the ante­rior and posterior ethmoidal cells (Figs.33.7 and
33.8). After dissecting the bulla, the basal lamella
will be the next block to be dissected. The entrance to the posterior ethmoidal cells start with opening the basal lamella infero- medially just above the junction between the vertical and horizontal part of the lamella to achieve that the endoscope is passed under the middle turbinate till reaching its end, then it is brought anteriorly under the horizontal part till it turns vertically and just above this point and enters the sinus by angled curette or suction tube, then complete dissecting the posterior ethmoidal cells by using through-cutting Blakesley, mush­room forceps, or by microdebrider. Here also the

lateral limit is represented by the lamina papyracea. Keeping dissection below the level of antral roof is a safe way to avoid the slopping skull base [5].
Pitfalls on Posterior Ethmoidectomy
• The posterior ethmoidal air cells are larger than the anterior ones.
• Look for onodi cells on CT to avoid injury of optic nerve and carotid artery.
• The PEA is larger than AEA and locate on the skull base just anterior to the sphenoid face.
• Entrance to posterior ethmoid via this way minimizes the risk of skull base injury, which may result if entrance occurs far above the point of junction between the horizontal and vertical part of ground lamella.
33.4.5 Sphenoidotomy
Sphenoid sinus (Figs.33.9 and 33.10) represents the posterior room of the endoscopic sinus sur­gery; behind it the cranial cavity is located and the sphenoid ostium is located medial to superior turbinate in 83% of the patients [6]. Approach to sphenoid sinus is a step-up in endoscopic sinus surgery requiring good knowledge and excellent Fig. 33.7 The posterior ethmoidal cells (yellow asterisk)

Transnasal: Sometimes approaching the sphe-
• noid sinus can be done via nasal cavity rather than through ethmoidal sinuses and this is mostly chosen when the disease is isolated to sphenoid sinus like mycetoma, mucocele or even isolated sphenoiditis. To do this, the endoscope is passed medial to middle turbi­nate and this may require reduction in middle turbinate, then identify the sphenoethmoidal recess between the superior turbinate tail and the nasal septum; here the natural ostium can be visualized by careful palpation of the ante­rior sphenoidal wall by the suction tip or blunt instrument. The natural ostium looks like a slit, then start widening it in four directions. Another method for transnasal approaching of the sphenoid sinus is by locating the choana which considered a xed and important land­mark to reach the sphenoid sinus; here advance the endoscope toward the choana, then move it slightly upward on the anterior sphenoidal wall for 1–1.5 cm and start palpating with blunt instrument to reveal the natural ostium if failed to do so, then articial opening can be done in this area then start widening. Widening of the sphenoidotomy can be done by mush­room forceps or the through-cutting forceps and try to avoid microdebrider in this area.
