Key Points

To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of single radiofrequency ablation for inferior turbinate hypertrophy (ITH).
Outpatient treatment with single radiofrequency ablation of inferior turbinates.
Assessment of patient satisfaction post-treatment.
Monitoring of outcomes related to safety and efficacy.
Patients reported high satisfaction levels after treatment.
Reduction in symptoms associated with chronic turbinate hypertrophy was noted.
The procedure was characterized as safe and effective.
