Abstract: To discuss the clinical characteristics of the headache induced by abnormal middle turbinate ,and therefore to improve the treatment level. Methods: The clinical data of 28 patients with headache resulted from abnormal middle turbinate were retrospectively reviewed. Results: They were confirmed by nasal endoscopic or sinus CT scanning and treated by partial middle turbinectomy. Conclusion: Partial middle turbinectomy is effective in treating headache resulted from abnormal middle turbinate.

Key words: Middle turbinectomy, Abnormal middle turbinate, Headache

[1] Rhinogenic headache is caused by rhinosinusitis or abnormal nasal anatomy. Currently, there are clear classifications and pain grading standards to diagnose the same. Further, its mechanism of action is now understood to involve trigeminal nerve stimulation and sensory neuropeptide substance P. Functional endoscopic surgery(FESS)is prioritized as a treatment modality. During surgery, it is imperative to restore the normal anatomy of the nasal cavity. Several clinical studies have reported that FESS was significantly effective in treating rhinogenic headache, with an overall effective rate of 90% and cure rate of 78%. Additionally, one report indicates that postoperative endoscopic examination and dressing change can effectively reduce the occurrence of complications and ensure safety of the treatment..
