Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Postoperative Synerchia1 year

The primary outcome of interest is time to event, with the event as the occurrence of nasal synechia. The date of surgery will be used as the beginning date, and the last date will be the date that patient was defined as synechia, or the end of the study period if that patient does not have synechia on follow up.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Scoring of SNOT-221 year

Scoring of translated SNOT-22 disease-specific quality of life measurement

Clinical Symptom Score6 months

Clinical symptom score of patients, measured by visual analog score which will be given by research nurse for a patient to fill in at baseline, 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 months.

SNOT-226 months

Disease-specific quality of life questionnaire SNOT-22 measurement which will be measured at baseline, 1 week, 1, 3, and 6 months.
