Abstract :

Aim: To compare local versus general anesthesia for endoscopic surgical treatment of sino nasal polyposis during operation as well as early and late postoperative period together with patients acceptance for surgery. Method: A total of 40 patients of any age with sinonasal polyposis will be included in the study. They are numbered from 1 to 40; patients with odd number were put in group (1) and will undergo endoscopic nasal surgery under local anesthesia. And those with even number were in Group (2) patients will undergo endoscopic nasal surgery under general anesthesia. Result: Most of patients done under local anesthesia showed good acceptance for surgery, short time of surgery and less bloody field than those done under general anesthesia. Conclusion: Surgery of sinonasal polyposis under local anesthesia was an effective method for treatment of nasal polyposis as regard patient acceptance for surgery, time of surgery, very good surgical field and less cost.
