Abstract

Some patients complain of altered sensation in the mouth following nasal surgery. A prospective study of 60 consecutive patients who underwent a total of 83 intranasal procedures revealed that this was a common complication, particularly following submucous resection (SMR) or intranasal antrostomies.

The area affected by painlparasthesia appears to be anatomically related to the surgical procedure(s) performed.
