Surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis is an effective complement to a well-designed medical regimen. Functional endoscopic sinus surgery is among the most common surgeries performed for sinonasal disease refractory to maximal medical therapy. Nasal surgery techniques, such as septoplasty and inferior turbinate surgery, may assist in both relieving the symptom of nasal obstruction and providing access for sinus surgery. Although rare, open sinus techniques are occasionally required.
慢性鼻-鼻窦炎的手术治疗是精心设计的药物治疗方案的有效补充。功能性内镜鼻窦手术是治疗药物治疗无效的鼻-鼻窦疾病最常见的手术之一。鼻中隔成形术和下鼻甲手术等鼻腔手术技术可能有助于缓解鼻塞症状并为鼻窦手术提供通道。尽管很少见，但有时仍需要开放式鼻窦手术技术。
