Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the clinical outcome of suture conchopexy combined with bolgerisation versus suture cochopexy alone in middle turbinate medialization techniques following endoscopic sinus surgery.Timepoint: Two years—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To evaluate the postoperative patency of the middle meatus in both groups using endoscopic scores. 2.To assess the impact of both techniques on olfactory function, measured by subjective and objective olfactory tests. 3. To compare the incidence of post operative complications, such as synechiae formation, septal perforation, or nasal obstruction, between the two groups. 4. To evaluate patient reported outcomes including symptom improvement using SNOT-22 Timepoint: Two years—
