A lot of people suffer from sinus problems like sinus blockage, deviated nasal septum, allergies,
cold and nasal polyp etc. Patients suffering from these problems require proper diagnosis. Only
a surgeon can identify the problem and provides optional solutions for it.
Dr. Jennifer Levine has helped countless patients suffering from sinus issues. She is a double
board-certified surgeon.
She starts from identifying the affected area, which includes the frontal, maxillary, ethmoid and
sphenoid sinusitis. Sometimes, she even recommends CT scan for the better visualization of
sinus problem.
Once examination is completed, Dr. Levine suggests medical therapy or surgery. Patients
recommended to go for surgery might be going for either of the below mentioned surgeries,
based on their sinus condition -
 Ethmoidectomy – During this treatment process, ethmoid sinuses located between the
eyes and sides of the nose are removed.
 Maxillary antrostomy – In Maxillary antrostomy surgery, maxillary sinuses located
behind the cheekbones are treated.
 Powered septoplasty with turbinoplasty – Patients with deviated or crooked nasal
septum face breathing problems. They are suggested to go for powered septoplasty
with turbinoplasty.
