Abstract

Very little work has been published in literature about the long-term results of endoscopic sinus surgery especially with substantial numbers. A cross-sectional study was performed of patient satisfaction following endoscopic sinus surgery over a mean period of 9.8 years, of 155 patients. A variety of nasal symptoms were assessed and interesting data was recorded in relation to abatement of symptoms related to nasal and systemic allergy. Overall 94% of patients were satisfied with functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) in relieving various nasal symptoms and a statistically significant number showed improvement in allergic symptoms. Our series has the longest follow-up with the largest patient group recorded in literature.
