Abstract:

Objective   To investigate the effect of nasal endoscopic operation on persistent allergic rhinitis with septum-deviation. Methods   According to the symptoms, sinus CT and examination result of the nasal cavity,132 patients with persistent allergic rhinitis with septum-deviation were randomly divided into A, B and C groups separately using drug-therapy, endoscopic nasal septal reconstruction and endoscopic nasal septal reconstruction and inferior turbinate angioplasty. Results   After a follow-up of 3 months, the total effect rates of the three groups respectively were 86.36%, 93.18% and 100%. After a follow-up of 6 months, they were 68.18%, 86.36% and 97.73%, respectively. After a follow-up of 1  year, they were 43.18%, 81.82% and 95.45%, respectively. Conclusion   Comparing with drug therapy, nasal endoscopic operation is better for persistent allergic rhinitis with septum deviation. Endoscopic nasal septal reconstruction and inferior-turbinate angioplasty or inferior turbinate lateral fracture can obtain a more satisfactory long-term curative effect.
