ENT physicians specializing in rhinology collaborate with health care providers across a multitude of specialties such as pulmonary critical care, allergy and immunology, infectious disease and immunology. Through this multidisciplinary effort, we provide comprehensive patient care and resident training in disorders of the nose and paranasal sinuses, including:
- Acute and chronic rhinosinusitis
- Nasal polyposis
- Allergic fungal sinusitis
- Aspirin-exacerbated respiratory disease (AERD)
- Nasal obstruction
- Deviated nasal septum
- Environmental allergy
- Turbinate dysfunction
- Sinonasal trauma
- Benign and malignant tumors of the paranasal sinuses
We provide the latest innovations in surgical treatments, such as:
- Primary and revision functional endoscopic sinus surgery
- Septoplasty and inferior turbinate reduction
- Functional septorhinoplasty and nasal valve repair
- Advanced endoscopic and open approaches to the paranasal sinuses
- Endoscopic and open oncologic procedures for sinonasal neoplasms
- Balloon sinuplasty
Physicians specializing in rhinology collaborate with colleagues across multiple disciplines to conduct cutting-edge, minimally invasive surgeries to treat conditions of the skull base.
Education
In the Department of Otolaryngology/Head and Neck Surgery’s highly selective training program, residents are directly involved in treatment of sinonasal disorders, along with patient diagnosis and management.
We also sponsor annual courses in otolaryngic allergy and rhinology and skull base surgery.

Project Description: In an FDA-funded collaboration with a team of university colleagues led by Laleh Golshahi, PhD, Assistant Professor of Engineering, we are creating three-dimensional nasal models based upon CT imaging in order to study the particle deposition of nasal sprays in adults and children with and without sinonasal disease.
