Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) at Dr. Singh City Hospital, Kalamboli, Navi Mumbai
At Dr. Singh City Hospital, we specialize in Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), a minimally invasive procedure designed to treat chronic sinus infections, nasal polyps, and other sinus-related conditions. Our expert ENT surgeons use advanced endoscopic techniques to restore normal sinus drainage, relieve nasal blockages, and improve overall respiratory health.
What Is Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS)?
FESS is a modern surgical technique used to treat chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, and other sinus diseases. This procedure involves the use of an endoscope—a thin, flexible tube with a camera and light—to visualize and remove obstructions in the sinus passages. Unlike traditional open surgeries, FESS is minimally invasive, resulting in quicker recovery and minimal discomfort.
Conditions Treated with FESS
- ✔ Chronic sinusitis unresponsive to medication
- ✔ Nasal polyps causing breathing difficulties
- ✔ Recurrent sinus infections
- ✔ Sinus-related headaches and facial pain
- ✔ Fungal sinus infections
- ✔ Deviated nasal septum contributing to sinus blockage
Before Surgery: Preparation Tips

- ✅ Avoid Blood Thinners – Medications like aspirin and ibuprofen should be stopped as advised.
- ✅ Fasting Before Surgery – Required if the procedure is done under general anesthesia.
