Abstract

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a persistent inflammatory condition of the paranasal sinuses lasting more than 12 weeks despite medical therapy, significantly affecting patients’ quality of life and productivity. It is characterized by nasal obstruction, facial pain or pressure, hyposmia, and mucopurulent discharge. The advent of endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) has revolutionized the management of CRS by enabling minimally invasive access to diseased sinus cavities, improving ventilation and drainage while preserving mucosal integrity. Over the past decades, major technological and procedural advancements in ESS have enhanced surgical precision, reduced complications, and improved long-term outcomes. Image-guided navigation, powered instrumentation, balloon sinuplasty, and 3D endoscopic visualization have further optimized functional restoration of sinus physiology and patient recovery.
