Radiofrequency, High-frequency and electrocautery Treatments vs Partial Inferior Turbinotomy
2009
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To compare the microscopic and macroscopic effects of radiofrequency, high-frequency, and electrocautery therapies with partial inferior turbinotomy in the treatment of nasal obstruction caused by inferior turbinate hypertrophy. DESIGN: Nonrandomized controlled trial. SETTING: Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, University of Genoa. PATIENTS: The study included 80 patients affected by nasal obstruction from hypertrophied inferior turbinates. INTERVENTIONS: Homogeneous patient groups A, B, C, and D underwent radiofrequency, high-frequency, and electrocautery treatments and partial inferior turbinotomy, respectively, to surgically reduce hypertrophied infer…
