Recurring sinus infections, facial pressure, breathing issues, or nasal congestion that just wonβt go awayβthese could all be signs of chronic sinusitis or other sinus-related conditions. At BN Clinic 19, Kolkata, we offer advanced diagnostics and minimally invasive sinus surgery to help you breathe easier and live better.
Our ENT specialists are trained in the latest techniques, including Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), ensuring safe and lasting relief from sinus-related issues.
Understanding Sinus Problems
The sinuses are hollow spaces in the bones of your face and skull, connected to the nasal passages. When these cavities get blocked or inflamed, they can cause pain, pressure, and chronic infections.
Common Sinus Conditions Treated with Surgery:
- Chronic Sinusitis: Persistent inflammation of the sinuses lasting over 12 weeks
- Nasal Polyps: Soft, noncancerous growths that obstruct breathing
- Deviated Nasal Septum: Misalignment of the nasal partition causing blockage
- Fungal Sinus Infections: Resistant infections common in humid regions like Kolkata
- Mucocele or Sinus Cyst: Mucus-filled sacs that can cause facial swelling or infection
When Is Sinus Surgery Recommended?
Surgery is usually considered when:
- Sinus symptoms persist despite months of medication
- You experience repeated sinus infections multiple times a year
- Nasal polyps or blockages prevent normal airflow or drainage
- A deviated septum or anatomical issue is causing chronic sinus trouble
- CT scan or nasal endoscopy confirms structural problems
Types of Sinus Surgery Performed at BN Clinic 19
We offer both traditional and modern approaches, depending on the condition and patientβs need.
1. Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS)
- The gold standard in modern sinus surgery
- Performed using a tiny camera (endoscope) and special instruments

- No external scars, faster healing, and reduced complications
2. Septoplasty
- Corrects a deviated nasal septum
- Often combined with sinus surgery for better long-term results
3. Polypectomy

4. Balloon Sinuplasty (select cases)
- A less invasive procedure using a balloon catheter to open blocked sinuses
