Sage Otolaryngology

This podcast highlights original research published in the October official journal of the American Academy of Otolaryngology—Head and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS) Foundation. The objectives were to identify anatomic contributions to chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) necessitating revision endoscopic sinus surgery (RESS), and to create a clinical acronym to guide imaging review prior to RESS that addresses pertinent sites of disease and potential sites of surgical morbidity.   In conclusion, the REVISIONS acronym was developed as a tool to distill the unique anatomic contributions of primary endoscopic sinus surgery failure into a format that can be easily incorporated in preoperative radiologic review and surgical planning to optimize outcomes and minimize complications.   Click here to read the full article.
