ABSTRACT

Background: the surgical reduction of the inferior turbinate is the treatment of choice for patients with non-infectious chronic hypertrophic rhinitis unresponsive to drug treatment; although there are other surgical techniques for this condition, evidence supporting its effectiveness is still insufficient. Objective: to describe the clinical characteristics and postoperative outcomes in patients with non-infectious chronic hypertrophic rhinitis treated by inferior endoscopic turbinoplasty. Methodology: descriptive case series study of patients over 15 years with non-infectious chronic hypertrophic rhinitis treated by inferior endoscopic turbinoplasty in the Minimum Access National Surgery Center from May 1, 2010 to June 30, 2012. The patients were followed for 6 months. Results: 36 patients were included, 63.9% were male; 69.4% had allergic rhinitis. Nasal obstruction associated with rhinorrhea, pruritus and headache (44.4 %) and grade II hypertrophy (58.3 %) predominated. After surgery all patients improved and only 8.3 % had complications. Conclusions: with the use of endoscopic inferior turbinoplasty favorable results were obtained, mainly due to the relief of symptoms and the limited development of complications.
