The objective: to evaluate the feasibility of using dexamethasone and lidocaine to potentiate the effect of anesthesia in patients with chronic polypous rhinosinusitis during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) interventions.Subjects and Methods. Clinical data, blood serum samples were collected prospectively from 52 patients who underwent FESS intervention. The patients were divided into 3 groups: Control Group ‒ C (n = 26), anti-inflammatory drugs were not administered; Dexamethasone Group ‒ D (n = 13), dexamethasone was administered (0.10‒0.15 mg/kg); and Lidocaine Group ‒ L (n = 13), a 1% solution of lidocaine was administered intravenously. The following parameters were studied: IL-6, IL-10, IL-18, alpha1-antitrypsin, and ferritin.Results. An increase of IL-6, IL-6/IL-10 was observed in Group C. An increase of IL-10 and a decrease of IL-6, IL-6/IL-10 were noted in Group D. In Group L, IL-6, IL-6/IL-10 did not change significantly. The intensity of bleeding was lower in Groups L (p < 0.001) and D (p < 0.05) versus Group C. Relative changes in the concentration of biomarkers within the normal range were detected in all groups.Conclusions. Changes in the cytokine profile are insignificant in patients with chronic polyposis rhinosinusitis during FESS performed under combined anesthesia.No convincing data on the need for intraoperative use of dexamethasone or intravenous lidocaine have been received.
