Nose and Sinuses (Rhinology) Programme
Overview
The Nose and Sinuses (Rhinology) Programme at the Aga Khan University Hospital (AKUH) specialises in the diagnosis and treatment of all conditions affecting the nose and sinuses. Our team of highly qualified and experienced otolaryngologists (ear, nose, and throat specialists) is dedicated to providing comprehensive care for patients of all ages.
Conditions We Treat
Sinusitis: Chronic inflammation of the sinuses, often causing facial pain, congestion, and discharge.
Sinonasal polyps: Soft, non-cancerous growths in the lining of the nose and sinuses due to long-standing allergies, leading to blockage and difficulty breathing.
Deviated nasal septum: It occurs when your nasal septum (partition separating the nostrils) is significantly displaced to one side, causing nasal blockage and breathing problems.
Benign and malignant neoplasms: Tumours of the nose and sinuses, requiring specialised diagnosis and treatment.
CSF leak: Leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord, through the nose.
Congenital choanal atresia: A birth defect blocking the nasal passages, making breathing difficult for newborns.
