Dr. Ahila's Conchal Crusher for Concha Bullosa.

ABSTRACT: Endoscopic Sinus Surgery is evolving day by day, there is a constant need for improvisation in terms of instrumentation with clear bloodless surgical field and good postoperative results. The applications of Dr. Ahila's Conchal Crusher for managing Concha bullosa in Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery  (FESS) Surgery are presented. The creation/innovation of Dr. Ahila's conchal crusher will prevent raw mucosal surface area, bleeding and scope fogging with blood during FESS surgery after traditional conchoplasty. This new instrument makes it easy to reduce concha bullosa during nose and sinus surgery creating a bloodless field, no risk of destabilization or fracture of middle turbinate hence no postoperative synechiae  which may otherwise lead to iatrogenic frontal sinusitis.
