What is it indicated for?

TurbAlign is intended to separate the middle turbinate from the lateral nasal wall during the clinically relevant healing phase associated with sinus surgery (e.g., endoscopic sinus surgery, FESS). The implant provides short-term fixation of the middle turbinate to the nasal septum and thus minimizes the risk of adherence to the lateral nasal wall.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
