Endoscopic Major Sinus Procedures, Both Side
The invasive procedures such as Caldwell-Luc operation had been used for the treatment of chronic pansinusitis in the past. However, with the development of nasal endoscopy, the endoscopic sinus surgery is now possible that removes any nasal polypor pathologic nasal mucosa and improves ventilation of paranasal sinus by opening their natural ostium wide. Especially in our hospital, the expert of endoscopic sinus surgery, Dr. Tae Young Jang, reports excellent treatment outcomes. 2 days after the surgery, the nasal packing for hemostasis is removed. And the patient could get out the hospital on the 3rd postoperative day.

Sialendoscopy
Non-neoplastic disorders of the major salivary glands (submandibular and parotid) include idiopathic or recurrent sialadenitis subsequent to salivary stones, stenosis, infective, inflammatory, or autoimmune etiology. Traditionally, failed conservative therapy has necessitated surgical excision of the gland(s). Sialendoscopy is a minimally invasive procedure that allows endoscopic visualization of the salivary ductal system and permits diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory and obstructive pathology of the ductal system, thus providing an alternative to open surgery.
