A BALLOON SINUPLASTY SPECIALIST SERVING THE TAMPA, FL, AREA

Balloon sinuplasty—also known as balloon sinus dilation—is a minimally invasive, in-office procedure that can provide significant symptom relief for people battling severe sinus inflammation and rhinosinusitis.

By using a small balloon to gently open up the sinuses, fluids can properly drain and sinus pressure can be alleviated.

If you live in Tampa, Florida, and are interested in learning more about this popular treatment, Scotch Institute of Ear Nose & Throat is an excellent place to turn. Our centers in nearby Wesley Chapel and Trinity are led by Dr. Brett Scotch—a board-certified, fellowship-trained, and award-winning otolaryngologist who specializes in performing in-office balloon sinuplasty procedures with 3D image-guided navigation technology. Let’s take a closer look at balloon sinus dilation and what this procedure entails.

BALLOON SINUPLASTY OVERVIEW

Balloon sinuplasty is an outpatient, endoscopic treaxment that does not involve cutting through bone or tissue. Here’s how it works:

  • A very thin catheter with a deflated balloon attached to the end is gently inserted into the inflamed sinus cavity.
  • The balloon is inflated to expand the sinus opening, allowing fluids to drain and pressure to be released.
  • If necessary, saline is sprayed to help clean and flush out the sinus cavity.
  • The catheter is gently removed and the sinus cavity remains open.
