Balloon Sinuplasty

Balloon Sinuplasty

Balloon Sinuplasty at Asian ENT Care Centre, Hyderabad

Balloon Sinuplasty is a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat chronic sinusitis and nasal congestion caused by blocked sinus passages. At Asian ENT Care Centre in Hyderabad, we offer this effective treatment for patients who suffer from recurrent sinus infections or have persistent nasal obstruction.

What is Balloon Sinuplasty?

  • Balloon Sinuplasty is a non-surgical procedure that uses a small, flexible balloon to gently open blocked sinuses.
  • The balloon is inserted through the nostrils and inflated to widen the sinus openings, allowing for better drainage and airflow.
  • The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and does not require any incisions, making it an excellent option for those seeking a quick recovery.

Why is Balloon Sinuplasty Done?

  • Chronic Sinusitis: Balloon Sinuplasty is primarily used to treat chronic sinusitis that doesn’t respond to medications or other treatments.
  • Nasal Congestion: Persistent nasal congestion due to blocked sinuses can be relieved through this procedure.
  • Sinus Infections: If sinus infections (sinusitis) are frequent or long-lasting, Balloon Sinuplasty can offer lasting relief.
  • Difficulty Breathing Through Nose: When the sinuses are blocked, it can lead to difficulty breathing, which Balloon Sinuplasty can address.

Benefits of Balloon Sinuplasty

  • Minimally Invasive: Unlike traditional sinus surgery, Balloon Sinuplasty requires no incisions, reducing the risk of complications and minimizing recovery time.
  • Quick Recovery: Most patients return to normal activities within 24-48 hours, as there is no significant downtime.
  • Effective Relief: Balloon Sinuplasty opens blocked sinuses, improves sinus drainage, and reduces the frequency of sinus infections.
  • No Removal of Tissue: The procedure doesn’t remove any tissue or bone, ensuring a less painful recovery.
  • Low Risk: With a high success rate and minimal risk, Balloon Sinuplasty is a safe option for treating chronic sinus problems.

What Happens During the Procedure?

  • Anesthesia: The procedure is usually done under local anesthesia, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout.
  • Balloon Insertion: A small balloon catheter is gently inserted into the blocked sinus passage through the nostrils.
  • Balloon Inflation: The balloon is inflated, which widens the sinus opening, allowing for better drainage and airflow.
  • Sinus Treatment: The procedure clears the sinus passages, and the balloon is deflated and removed.
  • Duration: Balloon Sinuplasty typically takes 20-30 minutes to complete, depending on the number of sinuses being treated.

Recovery After Balloon Sinuplasty

  • Minimal Downtime: Most patients experience minimal discomfort and can return to daily activities within 1-2 days.
  • Mild Side Effects: Some swelling, nasal congestion, or slight discomfort is common but generally resolves within a few days.
  • Follow-Up Care: After the procedure, you may be advised to use saline sprays or nasal irrigation to help with recovery and maintain sinus health.
  • No Stitches or Incisions: Since no incisions are made, there are no stitches to remove, and healing is quicker compared to traditional sinus surgery.
