Minimally invasive endoscopy providing direct visualization of the paranasal sinuses in cases of nasal discharge or chronic inflammation.
Sinus endoscopy allows direct visualization of the complex air-filled spaces within the horse’s head. It is commonly used to investigate:
The horse is sedated for the procedure, and the nasal passage is locally anesthetized to ensure a calm and safe examination. In many cases, access via the natural nasal passages is sufficient. In selected cases, a small surgically created opening (trephination) may be required.
Sinus endoscopy provides valuable information about the condition of the mucosa, bony structures, and disease processes within the head. It also allows targeted sampling such as lavage samples or biopsies and supports planning of further therapeutic measures. It is a key minimally invasive diagnostic tool for equine sinus disease.
