Overview

The authors presents results of questionnaires aimed at subjective evaluation of success of nasal polyposis surgical treatment. Valid data were obtained from 63 patients operated on for bilateral nasal polyposis in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Head and Neck Surgery of St. Anne’s University Hospital Brno between 1998 and 2005. Three years after the surgery, the patients received a questionnaire a part of which was subjective evaluation of 4 essential symptoms according to the degree of patient complaints before the surgery and afterwards. The visual analogue scale was used (where 0 means the lowest degree of satisfaction and 10 the highest one) for classification of the degree of subjectively perceived symptoms. Symptomatic improvement expressed as an average of differences in VAS score values before the surgery and afterwards was in nasal obstruction 6.59 ± 1.98 (79%), nasal discharge 4.97 ± 2.18 (65%), smell disorders 4.94 ± 3.93 (63%) and facial pressure and headache evaluation 2.86 ± 2.33 (72%). The total degree of patient satisfaction with the surgery result expressed with the average value of VAS score was 8.2 ± 1.77.

Key words:
nasal polyps, surgical treatment, symptomatic assessment, VAS score.
