Nasal Cavity Surgeries at Top Ichilov: Fast, Quality, Reliable

ENT doctors at Top Ichilov clinic are ready to provide comprehensive assistance to specialized patients, including those from CIS countries and Russia, in correcting deformational changes of the nasal septum.

The classic method of choice for correcting a deviated nasal septum can be submucosal resection. Its advantages include:

• The possibility of performing the intervention under both general and local anesthesia;
• Quick removal of the deviated sections of the septum, growths, and deformed cartilages (the operation takes from 30 to 45 minutes);
• The ability to monitor the surgeons' actions with endovideo equipment.

Although the surgical technique was devised over a century ago, submucosal resection remains the most reliable, radical method for correcting the nasal septum. Often, it is prescribed in cases where other methods of nasal septum correction have not yielded results. At Top Ichilov clinic, this intervention is continuously improved to ease the postoperative period, ensure precision in execution, reduce the risk of complications, and shorten the patient's hospitalization and rehabilitation times.

Another equally popular and in-demand method for correcting the curvature of the nasal septum and eliminating factors that hinder nasal breathing is the method of conchotomy. In Israel, laser conchotomy has become widely used, allowing for quick, painless destruction of the cavernous bodies of the nasal concha structures with minimal risk of complications. Variants of laser conchotomy include:

• submucosal laser conchotomy;
• mucosal laser conchotomy;
• contact laser conchotomy.

Advantages of Laser Conchotomy:

• the possibility of performing it on an outpatient basis;
• the possibility of performing it under local anesthesia;
• short operation times (from 2 to 2.5 hours);
• elimination of the possibility of significant blood loss;
• rapid healing of tissues;
• significant reduction in the rehabilitation period.

In addition to laser conchotomy, Top Ichilov also employs other types of this intervention. Among them:

• electrocoagulation,
• radio-surgery,
• ultrasound surgery.

The choice of a specific conchotomy or submucosal resection technique at Top Ichilov clinic will be tailored individually, after a thorough examination of the disease history and the patient's current status.

The nasal septum is an anatomical structure that divides the internal nasal cavity into two nostrils. The septum is made up of two types of tissues. In the front, there is cartilage, and in the back, a thin bone. In cases of septal deformities, a person begins to experience difficulties with breathing and develops persistent snoring.

Operations such as conchotomy or submucosal resection help relieve patients from such discomforting sensations.

Accurate Diagnosis: Guarantee of Successful ENT Surgery

As with any other surgical intervention, certain diagnostic and preparatory procedures must be conducted for conchotomy and submucosal resection. The standard diagnostic program before such interventions will include:

• Examination by the leading otolaryngologist at the clinic with a detailed medical history collection;
• ECG;
• Fluorography;
• Complete blood and urine tests;
• Blood coagulation tests;

The diagnostic and preparatory program may be expanded at the discretion of the treating physicians in each specific case.

The preparatory and diagnostic process for patients at Top Ichilov clinic needing conchotomy or submucosal resection of the nasal septum will be conducted in optimal timeframes and with excellent results.
