Jan 1, 2014
This prospective randomized study compared submucosal resection (SMR) with radiofrequency turbinate volume reduction (RFTVR) in 60 patients with inferior turbinate hypertrophy. Both procedures significantly reduced turbinate volume and improved nasal obstruction symptoms and nasal inspiratory peak flow by 2 months.…

Jan 1, 2013
This observational study followed 36 patients for 2 years after temperature-controlled radiofrequency tissue volume reduction for turbinate hypertrophy. Patients reported significantly lower VAS symptom scores (nasal obstruction, headache, rhinorrhoea, anosmia) after treatment compared with baseline. Urban residence…
