It is redommended for the patients who have reccurent acute or chronic infective sinusitis, nalas polyposis, fungal sinusitis, tumors and others. Postoperative nasal mucosa healing in highly coordinate procedure which involves coagulation phase, blood clot formation, inflammation, tissue creation and remodeling. Duration of a certain healing phase can be shortened, or prolonged depending on postoperative care. Disorder of sinonasal respiratory mucosa healing causes the development of infection or scar formation. Infection with additional mucosa destruction, excessive granulation and connective tissue hyperplasia can slow down the epithelization. Crusts or clots can capture the mucus and cause reinfection. Old blood can be a bacterial growth medium. This is the reason why the local toilette of the postoperative wound is important. Methods: Regular wound cleaning prevents propagation of pathogenic bacteria thus preventing infection of the wound. In this presentation we follow patients postoperative wound healing after nasal douching.
