Purpose of ReviewThe advances in the knowledge of the molecular basis of the inflammatory response in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) have led the management of these patients towards personalized and precision medicine. Surgery has been positioned as a suitable alternative in patients who do not achieve control with appropriate medical treatment, but polypoid recurrences remain a constraint. The emergence of new surgical approaches based on patient phenotyping and the poor disease control associated with type 2 inflammatory phenotype makes it necessary to review the role of personalized and precision surgery in managing the disease.Recent FindingsSurgical approaches based on wide resection of bony sinus structures and the treatment of mucosa lining the sinonasal cavity have been analyzed and compared with other techniques and seem to offer more favorable surgical outcomes and improved quality of life (QoL), in addition to lower relapse rates. The innovations with new complementary surgical techniques, such as reboot surgery adding an extended autologous mucosal graft from the nasal floor (mucoplasty), may benefit endoscopic and QoL outcomes in the most severe CRSwNP patients with type 2 phenotype.SummaryUsing bilateral endonasal mucoplasty as a complementary technique to reboot surgery is a suitable technical choice that has improved short- and medium-term QoL and endoscopic outcomes for patients with severe CRSwNP. These results are likely due to a combination of the extension of reboot and the inherent inflammatory and healing properties of mucoplasty. We propose this technique as a valuable surgical resource, although more robust clinical studies are needed to evaluate its long-term benefits comprehensively.
