OBJECTIVES: Topic treatment can be useful to improve short and long-term nasal outcomes after nasal surgery, reducing discomfort and risk of synechia. This study aimed at evaluating the effect on clinical outcomes of nasal packaging using Fitostimoline® gauze in FESS and septoplasty.
METHODS: A case-control study on hospitalized patients was performed in a tertiary referral center. The control group included 20 patients treated with the standard surgical protocol for septoplasty and standard nasal packaging; treatment group included 21 patients underwent same surgical procedure but in whom the nasal tampon was wrapped with a gauze containing Fitostimoline® before being placed into the nose.
RESULTS: Patients in treatment group had better outcomes than control; nasal mucosa showed better healing - recovery of normal color- in those patients in whom we applied the Fitostimoline® gauze around tampons. Moreover, 100 % patients in the treatment group did not refer discomfort during at tampon removal versus 60 % subjects in the control group who referred pain, tension or tearing during the same action.
CONCLUSION: Our results, although preliminary because of the small cohort of subjects included, suggest that the apposition of a gauze with Fitostimoline® after nasal surgery might improve the mucosal healing with consequent reduction of patients discomfort during the post-surgical period.
