Histological features of the specimens taken from turbinates 8 days after the surgery included necrosis and ulceration, fibrin deposition in the mucosa, necrotizing sialometaplasia, as well as proliferation of the granulation tissue. Generally, the changes found in the turbinates treated by diode laser were more severe, with more intensive tissue damage and less prominent regenerative and reparative changes.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
