Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis undergo sinus surgery to improve ventilation and drainage of paranasal sinuses (frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid, maxillary sinuses). Limited evidence exists to compare a conservative approach (i.e. operating on select sinuses) or a non-conservative approach (i.e. operating on all paranasal sinuses).

This study compares the two methods - full functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) versus selective (mini) sinus surgery in patients with Chronic rhinosinusitis. Patients will be randomised to receive either full FESS or mini FESS. Outcomes including symptoms scores and revision rates will be studied and compared.

Patients will be recruited from one expert surgeons rooms/clinics who will consent and perform the operation.

Normal sinus surgery takes approximately 60 minutes to 2 hours. Patients will be fasted 6 hours before the operation as it routine. After their operation they are usually discharged from hospital the same day.

They will be followed up in the rooms of the primary surgeon for at least 1 year.

Statistical methods / analysis
Based on 20% improvement, sample size is calculated at approximately 50 patients. This is determined using statistical software (G-Power). Data is expected to be non-parametric.
For parametric data Student T test to compare means across two groups and ANOVA across three or more groups. For non parametric dataMann Whitney U test if non parametric or Kruskal-Wallis for comparisons across three or more groups.
