How FESS Cyst Fenestration is performed
This surgery uses a transnasal endoscopic approach, typically expanding the natural opening of the affected sinus under the guidance of sinus CT and (if applicable) intraoperative navigation. The cyst is excised or fenestrated, and obstructing tissue is cleared, preserving functional mucosa as much as possible. Hemostasis and necessary dressing/packing are completed at the end of the procedure. Postoperative monitoring includes bleeding, infection, and ventilation/drainage, with irrigation and outpatient cleaning to promote recovery. The above is general health information, not medical advice; specific details are subject to specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
