Nasal and Sinus Surgery: Addressing Rhinitis and Sinusitis
- Explanation of rhinology and related surgical procedures
Nasal and Sinus Surgery: Restoring Breathing and Comfort
In the realm of Otolaryngology, rhinology plays a crucial role in managing nasal and sinus issues. Rhinitis, an inflammation of the nasal lining, and sinusitis, an inflammation of the sinuses, are common ailments that can significantly impact our quality of life.
Rhinology: The Art of Nasal Surgery
Rhinology encompasses a range of surgical procedures designed to address nasal obstructions and restore proper breathing. These procedures include:
- Septoplasty: Straightens the deviated nasal septum, improving airflow.
- Turbinate Reduction: Reduces enlarged turbinates, which obstruct nasal passages.
- Nasal Polypectomy: Removes nasal polyps, benign growths that can block the sinuses.
Sinus Surgery: Unblocking Congestion
When sinuses become inflamed and blocked, sinus surgery may be necessary. These procedures aim to clear the sinuses, promote drainage, and alleviate symptoms such as facial pain and pressure, nasal congestion, and headache. The most common sinus surgery is:
- Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS): Uses small cameras and instruments to remove blockages and enlarge sinus openings.
Customized Care for Optimal Outcomes
Our skilled otolaryngologists carefully assess each patient’s individual needs to develop a customized treatment plan. By combining expertise with the latest surgical techniques, we strive to restore nasal and sinus function, improving overall well-being and quality of life.

Otolaryngology encompasses a wide range of conditions affecting the ears, making ear surgery a crucial aspect of this specialty. Dr. Ent Kacker Ashutosh MD is an experienced otolaryngologist who excels in surgical interventions for various ear issues.
Mastoid Surgery
Mastoid surgery addresses infections and other abnormalities within the mastoid bone, located behind the ear. This procedure involves removing infected or diseased tissue, creating better drainage and preventing complications.
Tympanoplasty and Mastoidectomy
Tympanoplasty repairs a damaged or perforated eardrum, while mastoidectomy focuses on the mastoid bone. Together, these procedures restore hearing and prevent further infections.
Stapedectomy and Ossiculoplasty
When hearing loss is caused by a malfunctioning stapes bone, stapedectomy involves replacing it with a tiny prosthesis. Ossiculoplasty, on the other hand, addresses issues with other middle ear bones, improving sound transmission.
Endoscopic Ear Surgery
For minimally invasive ear surgery, endoscopic ear surgery utilizes a thin, lighted tube inserted into the ear canal. This allows for precise access and treatment of inner ear conditions, reducing discomfort and recovery time.
Cochlear Implant Surgery
In cases of severe hearing loss, cochlear implant surgery offers an advanced solution. This involves implanting a device to bypass damaged parts of the ear and directly stimulate the auditory nerve, restoring hearing.
Other Otological Surgeries
Various other surgical procedures may be performed to address specific ear conditions, such as:
- Cholesteatoma removal: Removing a noncancerous growth that can damage the ear structures
- Ear canal reconstruction: Restoring a narrowed or blocked ear canal to improve hearing
- Tinnitus treatment: Addressing persistent ringing in the ear through surgical interventions
Dr. Ent Kacker Ashutosh MD‘s expertise in otological surgeries empowers him to diagnose and treat a wide spectrum of ear conditions effectively.

Head and Neck Cancer Surgery: Managing Malignancies
Understanding Head and Neck Cancers
Head and neck cancers are a complex group of malignancies affecting the upper aerodigestive tract, including the nose, sinuses, mouth, throat, and larynx. These cancers often arise in areas exposed to carcinogens, such as tobacco smoke and alcohol, and can have devastating consequences, affecting speech, swallowing, and breathing.
The Role of Otolaryngologists in Oncology
Otolaryngologists are head and neck surgeons who specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the ear, nose, and throat. Their expertise in this anatomy and surgical techniques makes them uniquely qualified to manage head and neck cancers.
Surgical Treatment Options
Surgical intervention plays a critical role in treating head and neck cancers. Otolaryngologists perform various surgical procedures, including:
- Tumor Resection: Removal of the cancerous growth with surrounding healthy tissue to prevent recurrence.
- Neck Dissection: Removal of lymph nodes in the neck to detect and remove any spread of cancer.
- Reconstructive Surgery: Repairing or replacing damaged tissues to restore function and aesthetics after tumor removal.
Personalized and Collaborative Care
Otolaryngologists work closely with a team of oncologists, radiation therapists, and other healthcare professionals to provide comprehensive care tailored to each patient’s unique situation. They consider factors such as tumor stage, location, and patient’s overall health to determine the most appropriate treatment options.

Parathyroid glands, nestled near the thyroid, are responsible for maintaining calcium levels in the body. Abnormalities in these glands can result in conditions like hyperparathyroidism, characterized by excessive calcium production, or hypoparathyroidism, leading to calcium deficiency.
Otolaryngologists, with their specialized training in head and neck anatomy, are uniquely equipped to perform delicate surgical interventions on the thyroid and parathyroid glands. These procedures aim to restore endocrine function, alleviate symptoms, and improve patients’ overall well-being.
Thyroid Surgery
In cases of thyroid enlargement, thyroid nodules, or excessive thyroid hormone production, surgery may be recommended to partially or completely remove the thyroid gland. Advanced surgical techniques allow otolaryngologists to minimize scarring and preserve vocal cord function.
