Surgical treatment aiming at decreasing the size of the nasal conchae is controversial and it should be performed only after all alternative kinds of therapy have appeared unsuccessful. The incision of hypertrophic nasal conchae can also be performed together with the operation of the nasal septum. The excision of the entire concha is performed very infrequently. Usually, only the soft tissue of the concha is excised, but the excision of the hypertrophied tissue is most desirable. Some patients may undergo the cryotherapy.
