An ENT specialist, or otolaryngologist, diagnoses and treats a wide range of conditions affecting the ear, nose, and throat. These conditions, ranging from simple sinus infections to complex tumors, require expert care to provide effective, long term relief.
At Medcy Hospitals, our comprehensive ENT services are led by experienced specialists and a team of skilled healthcare professionals. We are dedicated to accurately diagnosing your condition and providing effective treatment to help you find lasting relief.
Types of ENT Services at Medcy Hospitals
Medcy Hospitals is home to best-in-class ENT specialists who are ready to offer these services:
Ear Procedures
- Myringotomy with Tube Insertion (Ear Tubes): This surgical procedure is performed to relieve pain and pressure caused by fluid buildup in the middle ear. A small hole is created in the eardrum to drain the fluid, and a tiny tube may be inserted to maintain proper drainage and ventilation.
- Cochlear Implants: These are electronic devices that significantly improve hearing for individuals with severe hearing loss or profound deafness. The system includes an external sound processor and an internal receiver with electrodes implanted in the cochlea to transmit sound signals directly to the auditory nerve.
- Mastoidectomy: A surgical procedure to remove infected or damaged mastoid air cells located behind the ear. This is necessary when an ear infection has spread to the bone or when a condition like a cholesteatoma has developed.
- Adenoidectomy: This is the surgical removal of the adenoid glands at the back of the throat, most common among children. It is performed when the glands become swollen and enlarged, obstructing the airway and leading to breathing difficulties.
Nose & Sinus Procedures
- Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS): A minimally invasive surgery that uses a nasal endoscope to treat severe sinus symptoms. It is used to clear blockages, remove polyps or infected tissue, and restore proper sinus function.
- Balloon Sinuplasty: A minimally invasive procedure that uses a small balloon tipped catheter to gently widen blocked or narrowed sinus passages. This restores normal sinus drainage, reduces pain and pressure, and improves breathing.
- Septoplasty (Nasal Septum Surgery): A surgical procedure to correct a deviated or crooked nasal septum, which can cause chronic congestion, breathing difficulties, and recurrent sinus infections.
- Nasal Septal Reconstruction: This surgical procedure is recommended for severe nasal septum deformities or complex conditions, where the entire septum is reconstructed to restore proper structure and function.
- Nose Sinus Surgery: A broad term for procedures that address conditions such as nasal polyps, chronic sinusitis, a deviated septum, or nasal tumors. The goal is to alleviate congestion, recurring infections, and breathing difficulties.
Throat & Head/Neck Procedures
- Tonsillectomy: The surgical removal of the tonsils, performed for patients with frequent tonsil infections or breathing issues during sleep. The procedure can involve the partial or complete removal of both tonsils.
- Sleep Apnea Inspire Therapy: An implantable device that stimulates the muscles responsible for maintaining an open airway during sleep. This therapy is for patients with severe obstructive sleep apnea, effectively reducing episodes and improving sleep quality.
- Microvascular Reconstruction: An advanced surgical procedure to rebuild structures in the face and neck that have been affected by cancer, burns, or congenital disabilities. It involves transferring tissue, bone, and skin from other parts of the body and reconnecting tiny blood vessels to restore function and appearance.
