The modern approach to relapse prevention for rhinosinusitis with polyps (RIP) aims to restore nasal breathing and prevent relapse. The primary criterion for the effectiveness of relapse prevention treatment is the duration of the relapse-free period, which is assessed based on clinical and laboratory criteria.

The main causes of postoperative recurrence of the inflammatory process in the LA are obstruction of the frontonasal junction due to scar and granulation tissue, retraction of the soft tissues of the frontal region into the lumen of the sinus, and the development of the osteomyelitic process.

Despite the large number of currently existing surgical treatment methods, the search for new, safer and more effective techniques remains a pressing issue in rhinosurgery.

The treatment of chronic sinusitis remains a pressing issue. Despite conservative and surgical treatments, chronic sinusitis tends to be protracted and recur repeatedly.

Injuries to the nose, paranasal sinuses and adjacent areas are only a particular type of traumatic brain injury, and they are of great importance in the clinic, diagnosis and treatment of patients with corresponding injuries.

The use of sorbents with immobilized antibacterial drugs helps reduce microbial contamination of the nasal mucosa, alleviates the course of postoperative rhinitis, and has a positive effect on the quality of life of patients after surgery.

Puncture of the maxillary sinus (MS) through the inferior nasal meatus remains one of the most, if not the most, common diagnostic and treatment procedures in otolaryngology. It is regularly performed in the treatment of acute and chronic sinusitis, as well as for the diagnosis of any diseases of the MS.

The problem of treating purulent sinusitis remains relevant, despite certain successes in the use of modern antibiotics, taking into account the sensitivity of flora to them, and many methods of gentle surgery for this pathology.

Traumatic injury to the external nasal pyramid inevitably results in a significant cosmetic defect and impaired nasal function. Approximately 80% of all external nasal deformities are traumatic in origin.

Chronic vasomotor (or year-round idiopathic) rhinitis, regardless of the cause and characteristics of the clinical development of various forms, have a single pathogenetic mechanism common to all its variants: hyperreactivity of the vascular and secretory systems of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity.
