The Impact of Endoscopic Sinus Surgery on Mucosal Structures in Patients with Chronic Rhinosinusitis
Objective:To explore the clinical effectiveness of endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS)in managing chronic rhinosi-nusitis(CRS).Methods:A total of 120 CRS patients were randomized into two groups(n=60 each)using a random number table.The control group received medical therapy,whereas the observation group underwent ESS in addition to medical treatment.Nasal mucosal morphology,mucosal function,and disease severity scores were compared between the groups.Results:Pre-treatment Lund-Kennedy scores showed no statistical differ-ence between the two groups(P>0.05),but at 3 months post-treatment,the observation group's scores were significantly lower than the control group's(P<0.05).Prior to treatment,there was no statistically significant difference in the nasal mucus clearance rate,velocity,and time between the groups(P>0.05).However,at 3 months post-treatment,the observation group exhibited higher clearance rates and velocities,and shorter clearance times compared to the control group(P<0.05).Additionally,pre-treatment SNOT-20 scores showed no significant difference(P>0.05),yet at 3 months,the observation group's scores were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic rhinosi-nusitis patients promotes favorable changes in nasal mucosal morphology,enhances mucosal function,and im-proves the overall condition.
