Balloon Sinus Dilation in a Simple Case

Aug 19, 2015
Chronic sinusitis is defined by infections, pain, and near-endless suffering. Although patients may go a few weeks or months at a time without these symptoms, the chronic part means that they will always return.

Chronic sinusitis is defined by infections, pain, and near-endless suffering. Although patients may go a few weeks or months at a time without these symptoms, the chronic part means that they will always return.

Balloon sinus dilation surgery addresses the cause of chronic sinusitis at the source, gently creating wider openings that let the sinuses drain.

As the doctor describes, reconstructing a patient’s sinus anatomy in this way is minimally invasive, with rapid healing:

“Because the opening is made of those paper thin bones, it will stay open, those bones will heal where we move them,” said Dr. Wells. . . . Recovery lasts about 24 hours.
