Comparative investigation of transport and deposition of nebulized particles in nasal airways following various middle turbinectomy

CONCLUSIONS: This study is the first to investigate the effect of various surgery scope on drug delivery by transnasal nebulization to the sinonasal cavities. The findings strongly affirm the vast potential of transnasal nebulization as an effective post-FESS treatment option. Moreover, it emphasizes that the drug delivery process via atomizers to the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses is highly sensitive to the particle size.PMID:38010118 | DOI:10.4193/Rhin23.265
