“…One criticism of balloon sinuplasty involves the cost. It is reported to cost approximately $1,500 per patient . In a cross‐sectional study looking at pediatric patients undergoing ESS versus balloon dilation, it was noted that there were significantly higher charges, without significant changes in operating room time, for the balloon group compared to the ESS group .…”

“…The additional expense of new technology must also be considered with the utilization of balloon technology for treatment of CRS. 1171 As delivery of topical medications has become an increasingly important treatment modality in the management of CRS, the impact of sinus surgery to enhance such delivery must be considered. Postoperative distribution of topical medications to the paranasal sinuses may be limited by utilization of more conservative ESS techniques, such as MIST or balloon dilation.…”

“…More recently, BCS has been evaluated for safety and efficacy of treatment of chronic rhinosinusitis in the pediatric population. BCS appears to be safe and effective, according to recent cohort studies, [4750] and in contrast to ESS, it does not involve tissue removal and spares mucosa. This noninvasive technique may be particularly beneficial in the pediatric age group and thus in a group of CF patients.…”
