Balloon Sinuplasty
A balloon sinuplasty is a medical procedure performed by an Otolaryngologist that is used to treat blocked sinus passages. The balloon technique is a less invasive treatment compared to traditional sinus surgery and an alternative for patients looking for an alternative to traditional surgery. When someone who is diagnosed with sinusitis is not responding to medication, the patient may be a candidate for this new technologically advanced procedure. Balloon Sinuplasty allows the physician to open the sinus passageways by expanding a small balloon in sinus opening (similar to the way angioplasty opens the blood vessels in the heart).
