“…In the present study, LAS is considered an appropriate technique with shorter total operation time, real surgical time, less intraoperative bleeding, with less need for anesthetic supplements. On the other hand, it lacks in securing the airway from aspiration, ± 0.77), which was proved by some authors, who concluded 86% satsified patients with LAS and 66% satisfied patients about the procedure with GA. And those satisfied patients with LAS would recommend the same procedure with the same method of operation to other patients [8].…”

AIM: The main target of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy and the benefits of the use of local anesthesia during septal and bilateral turbinate surgery. METHODS: This prospective, randomized control study was conducted on 140 patients between the ages of 17 and 65, though the period from march 2021 to November 2022, who were booked for septal and bilateral turbinate surgery who were randomly allocated into two groups study group (1) involving 35 patients (42 males and 28 females with mean age 34.3 ± 11.9 years old) who were received local anesthesia with deep sedation and control group (2) involving 35 patients (52 males and 18 females with mean age 33.3 ± 11.4) who were received general anesthesia from march 2021 to November 2022. RESULTS: Local anesthesia with sedation group showed a significantly less Total operation time (33.3 ± 2.62 min), real surgical time (23.64 ± 2.70 min), intraoperative blood loss (33.9 ± 2.3 mL), hospital stay duration (7.1 ± 0.7), post-operative pain (8.6%), post-operative nasal packing (8.6%), patient satisfaction (9.3 ± 0.7), and total hospital cost (17.14 ± 1.25 $), with no significant deference regarding to nausea and vomiting (5.7%), Compared to the other control group. CONCLUSION: Septoplasty with bilateral turbinate surgery under local anesthesia with deep sedation is easy, safe, reliable, and costless that to be done under general anesthesia.
