Özet
Objective: We aimed to compare the effects of sphenopalatin ganglion blockade (SPGB) with control group on the early postoperative complications for functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Method: Sixty patients scheduled for functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) were included in the study. The patients were allocated one of two groups: In Sphenopalatine group (Grup S, n=30), SPGB was applied bilaterally with 2 mL 0.25% bupivacaine 15 min before the end of the surgery. In Control group (Grup K, n=30) 2 mL 0.9 % NaCl solution were injected in both SPG sites. Postoperative pain and analgesic demands were evaluated at 2nd, 6th and 24th hours. The presence of laryngospasm and the frequency of nausea/vomiting in the first 24 hours were also recorded in both groups. Results: Visual analogue scale (VAS) scores were significantly lower in group S at 2nd hour postoperatively. In the first 24 hours, 15 rescue analgesic drugs were needed in 11 cases in group S, but 31 times of 24 cases in group K. In group S the incidence of sore throat in neutral position, sore throat during swallowing and headache was 5, 13 and 15, whereas the incidence were 7, 17 and 22 in group K respectively. Larygospasm was observed in 2 cases of group K, and none in group S. Nausea-vomiting was seen in 6 cases in group S and 10 cases in group K in 24 hours postoperatively but no significant difference in morbidity was detected. Conclusion: Bilateral SPG blockade may provide better analgesia in early postoperative period, when it is compared with control group; but further studies are needed to determine the beneficial effects on larygospasm and nausea-vomiting.
