RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Adhesions are the most common complication after nasal surgery and revision. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) reduces various adhesions and epithelial growth related complications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of 5-flurouracil application in the nasal cavity after a multi-procedure nasal surgery in term of complications frequency.
MATERIALS AND METHODOLOGY: Institutional ethical approval was granted and a double-blinded prospective clinical trial was conducted to study the effect of 5-fu on post-operative complications. At the end of a combined endoscopic inferior turbinoplasty with one or more other nasal surgeries, 5-flurouracil-soaked cottonoid with 1mL of 5-flurouracil (5mg/mL) was applied in one side of nasal cavity and saline-soaked cottonoid was applied contralaterally and left for 5min. Patients were assessed over 2months postoperatively by a blinded observer in terms of adhesions, crustation, discharge, pain, discharge, loss of smell and other complications and nasal symptoms.
RESULTS: On the 1st follow up week postoperatively, adhesions were observed in (24 patients) 35%, bilateral in (6 patients) 9% and unilateral in (18 patients) 26%. Unilateral Adhesions were statistically significantly higher in control sides than those in 5-FU sides (22% vs 4% respectively) (p=0.025). Crustation, continued to statistically significantly diminish over time (p=0.035). On the 8th follow up week, adhesions reduction was still statistical significant at the 5-FU treated side (p=0.01).
CONCLUSION: 5-FU is safe and effective in preventing adhesions formation when applied during combined endoscopic inferior turbinoplasty procedure with other nasal procedure surgery.
