Balloon Sinuplasty:
The
Good News About Modern Nasal and Sinus
Surgery
The
Sinusitis Problem
There are about 37 million
people suffering from sinusitis
in the US. For many,
antibiotics, nasal steroids, and
allergy shots are effective.
However, for about 1.2 million
people, medical therapy is not
adequate and sinus surgery is
recommended. Yet, only 1/3 of
those referred for surgery
actually go, leaving 800,000
people each year looking for an
alternative.
