When to Consult

  • Chronic sinusitis lasting over 12 weeks despite medication
  • Recurrent polyps causing loss of smell
  • Fungal sinusitis or allergic fungal rhinosinusitis
  • Frontal or sphenoid sinus disease causing headaches
  • Sinus complications affecting eyes or brain
  • Failed prior sinus surgeries needing revision

Understanding FESS in the Indian Context

Pollution, allergens, and fungal exposure make chronic rhinosinusitis widespread in Hyderabad. FESS removes diseased tissue while preserving healthy mucosa, ensuring faster recovery and fewer complications compared to traditional surgery.

When to Consult Our Sinus Surgery Experts

⚠️ Immediate ENT review if you have:

  • ✓ Eye swelling or double vision with sinus infection
  • ✓ High fever with severe frontal headache and neck stiffness
  • ✓ Blackish nasal crusting suggesting invasive fungal disease

Consult us for persistent nasal obstruction, repeated infections, loss of smell, or dependence on steroids. Many patients travel from Nizamabad, Khammam, and Mahbubnagar for Ajuda's navigation-guided expertise.

Our Diagnostic Approach

1️⃣ ENT Evaluation Detailed history, nasal endoscopy, allergy testing.

2️⃣ CT Mapping Thin-cut CT scans integrate with navigation software for safe planning.

3️⃣ Optimisation Phase Steroid sprays, saline irrigation, and antifungals prepare mucosa.

4️⃣ Surgical Counselling Discuss risks, benefits, and recovery expectations with our team.

Treatment Pathways

Ajuda customises FESS with balloon dilation, fungal clearance, and post-op debridement schedules. Integration with allergy and pulmonology clinics maintains long-term success.

What to Expect: Your Care Journey

  • Week 0: Pre-anaesthesia check, insurance documentation.
  • Surgery Day: FESS under general anesthesia; navigation ensures safety.
  • Day 1-2: Hospital stay with pain control, breathing exercises.
  • Weeks 1-4: Regular endoscopic cleaning, saline rinses, medication review.
  • Months 3-6: Allergy management, smell restoration monitoring.

Technology & Innovation

Medtronic navigation, powered instruments, and HEPA-filtered OT ensure precise tissue removal. Ajuda's ENT board reviews complex cases using shared HD recordings.

Preventing Complications

Early surgery prevents orbital cellulitis, brain abscesses, and chronic steroid dependence. Structured follow-up stops synechiae and restenosis.
