Evaluation of In-Office Cryoablation of Posterior Nasal Nerves for the Treatment of Rhinitis

摘要

Chronic rhinitis is a common condition generally treated with medical therapies. However, 10–22% of patients are refractory to medical therapies. A cryotherapy handheld device targeting the postganglionic nerve fibers of the posterior nasal nerve (PNN) now serves as an additional option for therapy. This study evaluates the efficacy of the cryosurgical ablation device of the PNN in the clinic setting.
