KEY POINTS
- Chronic rhinosinusitis is a prevalent disease with impairment in
quality of life and economic burden.
- Endoscopic sinus surgery allows removal of diseased mucosa for
paranasal sinus but has a potential for important complication.
- Image guidance can provide accurate anatomical location
intraoperatively, improving surgical efficacy.
- No significant difference was found in surgical complication with or
without the use of image guidance.
- Further studies assessing quality of life of patients submitted to
these procedures are needed.
