What Is Balloon Sinuplasty? A Non-Surgical Sinus Treatment
At the Sinus and Snoring Center of Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital, patients can now benefit from balloon sinuplasty—an advanced, minimally invasive procedure to effectively and comfortably treat chronic sinusitis.
The procedure involves inserting a small balloon into the sinus cavity through the nose. Once in place, the balloon is gently inflated to open up the blocked sinus passage and allow trapped mucus to drain. This technique is a safe, low-trauma alternative to traditional sinus surgery.
Before the procedure begins, patients will receive either general anesthesia or conscious sedation, depending on their medical condition and needs. Conscious sedation keeps the patient awake but pain-free throughout the procedure.
Balloon Sinuplasty Procedure Steps
Here are the steps followed during the balloon sinuplasty procedure at Mandaya Royal Puri Hospital:
- Application of topical decongestant inside the nose to reduce the risk of bleeding.
- Injection of local anesthesia into the nasal tissue.
- Insertion of a thin tube equipped with a camera (endoscope) to guide the procedure.
- Insertion of a catheter through the nostril to reach the sinus cavity.
- Placement and inflation of the small balloon to open the blocked sinus passage.
- Deflation and removal of the balloon—this step may be repeated if necessary.
The procedure is generally painless. Most patients report feeling only mild pressure around the nasal area. After the treatment, any discomfort can be managed with mild pain relievers as recommended by the doctor. Patients will also be given post-procedure medication guidelines to ensure a smooth recovery.
