A turbinectomy is a surgical procedure that involves removing a portion of the nasal turbinates to improve airflow and relieve respiratory conditions such as chronic sinus congestion and severe allergies. The turbinates are structures inside the nose that help warm, humidify and filter the air we breathe. By reducing their size, more air can pass through the nostrils.
