Sinus & Nasal Care | Dallas

A video nasal endoscopy performed by Dr. Tannas to assess chronic sinusitis (sinus infections), nasal congestion (chronic stuffy nose), nasal obstruction (deviated septum, nasal polyps, swollen turbinates), postnasal drip, & drainage. An in-office Sinus CT scan may be required for a definitive diagnosis of complex sinus issues.

Nasal endoscopy and Sinus CT scans provide different, but often complementary, information about the sinuses. Video endoscopy allows for direct visualization of the nasal passages and middle meatus, while Sinus CT scans (sometimes known as a 3-D Sinus X-rays) visualize the paranasal sinuses and identify anatomical variations contributing to complex sinus issues.

If indicated during your Sinus Consultation, Dr. Tannas can perform a rapid Sinus CT scan (aka 3-D Sinus x-ray) to further assess a deep-seated complex sinus issue or nasal obstruction. During the same visit, he reviews/explains your immediate results and tailors a treatment plan. Skip the imaging center & save PTO.  ($150 add-on with a Sinus Consult)

At Walnut Hill ENT, we prioritize a conservative approach to chronic sinusitis treatments using natural remedies (nasal saline irrigation) & medical management (nasal sprays and steroid nasal irrigation) before considering minimally invasive in-office procedures like balloon sinuplasty.

A minimally invasive procedure that restores normal sinus drainage pathways & relieves sinus pain & congestion. With Total IV Anesthesia (TIVA), the patient's sinus passages are widened by inflating a tiny balloon. Performed by sinus specialist Dr. Tannas at Walnut Hill ENT. Patients often return to work in days. For more details, see About Balloon Sinuplasty.
