Abstract
Objective:To investigate the feasibility and effect of endoscopic-assisted posterior nasal neurotomy on patients with moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis (AR).Method:Endoscopic-assisted posterior nasal neurotomy were operated on 32 moderate-severe persistent AR patients who were insensitive to drugs and desensitization treatment,and curative effect were evaluated by scoring according to the diagnosis and curative effect evaluation standard of AR.Result:Follow-up evaluations were perfected after one year. Among them 17 cases were markedly effective,15 cases were effective,and the rate of total effective was 100%,without complications such as nose bleeds,dry eye,etc.Conclusion:The advantages of endoscopic-assisted posterior nasal neurotomy on moderate-severe persistent allergic rhinitis patients include the localization of posterior nasal nerve is clear,easy to operate,the short-term effect is remarkable,and less complications,therefore it's worth using on the AR patients who are failing in drugs and specific immune treatment.
