Summary
Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is a common otolaryngologic procedure that aims to remove the partitions that separate the sinus cavities, remove inflamed tissue, and optimize the sinuses for topical medication use. In this procedure, the surgeon will inject a combination of drugs, local anesthetics, and vasoconstrictors, to reduce bleeding and improve visualization. However, previous studies have shown similar results when injected with only saline. In this study, investigators want to determine if the injection of local anesthesic+vasoconstrictor compared to no injection at all makes any difference in improving the surgeon's visualization during an ESS.
