Nesepolypper og/eller biholebetennelse, operasjon

Målet med operasjonen er å opne opp slik at nase og biholer blir ventilert. Du vil puste betre med nasen, det blir mindre snørr og slim, presset i biholene blir mindre og for ein del pasientar blir luktesansen betre. I tillegg får du mindre plager med biholebetennelsar. Dei fleste vil merke forventa effekt av inngrepet allereie etter 2-4 veker.

Biholebetennelse kan vere svært smertefullt, men går ofte over av seg sjølv. Dersom symptoma ikkje forsvinn, finst det behandling som hjelper.

Før

​​Faste

Før operasjonen/undersøkinga må du faste. Dersom du ikkje møter fastande, kan det hende vi må avlyse/utsetje timen.

De siste 6 timane før operasjon/undersøking skal du ikkje ete mat eller drikke mjølk/mjølkeprodukt. De siste 2 timane skal du unngå tyggegummi, drops, snus og røyk. Fram til 2 timer før kan du drikke klare væsker: Vatn, saft, juice utan fruktkjøt, brus, te og kaffi utan mjølk. Du kan svelge medisinar med eit lite glas vatn inntil 1 time før, og pusse tenner og skylje munnen når som helst.

  • Mat og mjølk/mjølkeprodukt: Skal stoppast 6 timer før
  • Klare væsker, tyggegummi, drops, røyk og snus: Skal stoppast 2 timer før

Dersom du likevel har ete eller drukke utanom dei tidene som står her må personalet få vite det.

Før enkelte inngrep skal du drikke ein bestemt mengde næringsdrikk.Det får du i så fall beskjed om. ​

 

Dersom operasjonen gjerast med lokalbedøving treng du ikkje å faste. Tannpuss utførast på vanleg måte. 

Under

Under inngrepet bruker kirurgen eit endoskop. Det er eit liten røyr med ei forstørrande linse eller kamera. Kirurgen sett endoskopet inni eit nasebor, fører det mot opningen til biholene og vidare til området med eventuelle polyppar. Det blir brukt små instrument for å fjerne bein, slimhinne/polyppar og andre hindringar som blokkerer biholene. 

Operasjonen tek vanlegvis mellom 1-2 timar og du blir observert i ca. 2 timar etterpå. Du kan vanlegvis reise heim same dag som du er operert. 

Etter

Dei fleste som blir operert for nasepolyppar og/eller kronisk biholebetennelse vil ha ein liten tampong i eit eller begge nasebor når de vaknar. Tampongane blir fjerna på første kontroll etter operasjonen. Vanlegvis er det dette etter mellom to til fem dagar. I nokre tilfelle blir det brukt tampongar som løyser seg opp sjølv. Desse treng ein ikkje fjerne manuelt. 

Etter operasjonen må du sørge for å ha transport heim. Du kan ikkje køyre bil sjølv denne dagen. 

Sjukmeldingstida er vanlegvis mellom ca. 5 -10 dagar, men kan variere ut frå kva jobb du har. 

Ver merksam

Ver merksemd 
Komplikasjonar hender sjeldan. Det er normalt dei første tolv dagane etter operasjonen at ein kan blø litt frå nasen. Ein av 100  pasientar kan få større blødingar. Ta kontakt med sjukehuset om blødingen ikkje stoppar.

Infeksjon er sjeldan men kan hende hos ca. 2-5 % av pasientane. Symptoma på infeksjon er aukande smerte, hevelse og feber. Det kan kjennast ut som ein akutt biholebetennelse.

Svært sjeldan oppstår det  endringar på synet eller skade på auga i forbindelse med operasjonen. Fordi biholene ligg svært nær hjerne kan det skje ein lekkasje av hjernevæske. Om det skulle skje må du ha ein ny operasjon for å lukke lekkasjen.
