New Functional & Reconstructive Nasal Surgery Department
18 July 2016
MITERA Hospital is inaugurating a new dedicated Functional & Reconstructive Nasal Surgery Department, which aims at offering comprehensive healthcare services to patients experiencing functional and cosmetic nasal problems.
Implementing the latest technology available globally, the Department is equipped to handle all reconstructive nasal problems in adults, as well as congenital nose deficits in children and adolescents.
Specifically, the Department treats nasal breathing conditions, investigates and restores nasal valve deficiencies using all the contemporary techniques, including grafts, while it also performs reconstructive surgery of the nasal septum, either due to trauma or to a previous procedure.
In addition, the Department specializes in reconstructive rhinoplasty in patients with congenital or post-traumatic deficits.
As noted by Ms Argyro Kypraiou, Director of the Department and ENT surgeon specializing in rhinoplasty, “The mentality and techniques of reconstructive surgery have advanced considerably in recent years and are leading to excellent post-operative results. This way, surgical specialists can safely treat post-traumatic, iatrogenic or oncological problems, as well as minor or major nasal deformities, providing relief to patients who have undergone multiple pointless procedures. Despite the fact that reconstructive nasal surgery requires fine movements and is time-consuming, it is completely painless and requires short hospitalization.”
