Introduction
Nasal polyp removal is an ENT procedure performed to treat nasal polyps — soft, noncancerous growths that develop in the lining of the nasal passages or sinuses due to chronic inflammation.
Nasal polyps can cause persistent nasal blockage, reduced sense of smell, facial pressure, postnasal drip, and recurrent sinus infections.
When medical treatment such as nasal sprays or medications is insufficient, surgical removal becomes necessary to restore normal nasal airflow and sinus drainage.
