Adjunctive Middle Turbinectomy for Endoscopic Medial Orbital Wall – Thyroid Eye Disease Decompression

Abstract Introduction Middle turbinate resection (MTR) is commonly performed during endonasal endoscopic sinus and skull base surgery. Objective The purpose of this study was to characterize the additional orbital soft-tissue volume expansion during endoscopic medial orbital wall decompression with adjunctive MTR. Methods A retrospective review of patients who underwent endoscopic medial wall decompression with MTR was performed. The imaging software AW (GE Healthcare, Chicago, IL, USA) was used to overlay pre and postoperative orbital computed tomography (CT) images to visualize the preope...
