What is Nasal Polypectomy?

The nasal polypectomy procedure involves the removal of nasal polyps which are benign growths on the lining of the nasal passages, and helps in relieving nasal congestion, improving breathing, and reducing sinus-related problems. Indications for this surgical method include chronic sinusitis, which is unresponsive to medical treatment, nasal obstruction, recurrent infections, loss of sense of smell (anosmia), and difficulty in breathing through the nose.
