Te historical Perspective on FESS is associated with Kennedy who coined the term. Whereas endoscopic orbital decompression in reference to FESS came about by Kennedy and Michel in the early 1990s, it has come to be of great use in the modern times (Becker SS and Chiu AG, 2010). In addition, enhanced visu- alization to signifcant anatomic landmarks is a critical area of decompression in optic neuropathy, has made endoscopic surgery a versatile tool. Te concept of FESS globally is not new, it entails the removal of tissue obstructing the Osteo Met- al Complex (OMC) while facilitating drainage and conserv- ing mucous membrane and patients’ normal non-obstructing anatomy (Bhat N, et al., 2012). Cumber worth, Sudderick and Mackay clarifed that rigid fber optic nasal telescope ofers outstanding intra-operative visualization of the OMC which allows surgery to be pay attention on the important areas (Chang CC, et al., 1996). Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery is a minimally inva- sive technique used to restore sinus ventilation and normal function. Te most suitable candidates for this procedure have recurrent acute or chronic infective sinusitis, and an im- provement in symptoms of up to 90 percent may be expect- ed following the procedure (Cumberworth VL, et al., 1994). Fiberoptic telescopes are used for diagnosis and during the procedure, and computed tomography is used to assess the anatomy and identify diseased areas. Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery should be reserved for use in patients in whom medical treatment has failed. Te procedure can be performed under general or local anesthesia on an outpatient basis, and patients usually experience minimal discomfort. Te compli- cation rate for this procedure is lower than that for convention- al sinus surgery (Hudgins PA, 1993). OBJECTIVES Te main objective of the study is to fnd the complications of Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery in sinusitis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tis cross-sectional study was conducted in Jinnah Hospital Lahore during 2019 to 2020. Te study was carried in hospital, whereby 200 patients performed Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery operation. Afer the surgery the patients were followed postoperatively and checked for both minor and major compli- cations, and their experiences at large. Results showed no major complications if done by properly trained endoscopic surgeons thus three patients reported synch formation while one indicated to having per-orbital swelling. Tis translated to one percent of the total number of patients. Te rest of the patients who under- went the surgery did not report any complications. RESULTS Te data was collected from 200 patients. Te mean age of the pa- tients was 39.25 ± 2.45 years. Te major complications presented by the patients in three months follow up (Table 1).

Objectives: The main objective of the study is to find the complications of Functional Endoscopic Sinus Sur- gery in sinusitis patients. Material and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in Jinnah Hospital Lahore during 2019 to 2020. The study was carried in hospital, whereby 200 patients performed Functional Endoscopic Sinus Sur- gery operation. After the surgery the patients were fol- lowed postoperatively and checked for both minor and major complications, and their experiences at large. Results: The data was collected from 200 patients. The mean age of the patients was 39.25±2.45 years. The major complications presented by the patients in three months follow up were shown in table. Conclusion: All together there are few cases of compli- cations from the manipulations performed during the post-operative visits whereby the theoretical risks are equally the same as the main surgery itself. Nearly all surgeries and postoperative care are closely similar and therefore the consent given for surgery automatically includes consent for postoperative care.
