Abstract
- Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is one of the common ENT surgeries performed. Various techniques are available for reducing the blood loss during ESS. The efficacy of cauterization of the SPA in reducing the per-operative blood loss has not been explored in the literature. This study evaluates the efficacy of SPA cauterization prior to sinus surgery and its per-operative and post-operative outcomes. To study the outcomes of endonasal SPA cauterization in patients undergoing ESS. This is a prospective observational study conducted in a tertiary care centre from October 2018 to October 2020. 30 patients underwent ESS where SPA was cauterized by bipolar diathermy in one side of the nasal cavity and in the contralateral side, SPA was not cauterized. The results were tabulated and compared between the cauterized and non cauterized side. p value
