Sinus Problems

Sinusitis, or long-term problems with sinus infections or discomfort, is one of the most common problems seen in ENT practices. In fact, experts estimate that 37 million Americans have problems with sinusitis.

The physicians and staff at the Maryland Ear, Nose and Throat Center at Union Memorial Hospital have treated thousands of patients with sinus disorders. Many patients with long-term sinus problems require surgery. Our physicians are skilled in minimally invasive sinus surgeries, surgery that involves fewer incisions and less recovery time. The use of a tiny stent, which was developed by Dr. Shikani, keeps the airways open, allows sinus drainage and greatly reduces the recurrence of sinus problems and the need for repeat sinus surgeries.

If you require a procedure or surgery, we will explain the procedure, answer your questions and give you information about what to expect after the surgery.
