ESS with the piezoelectric knife used for frontal beak reduction turned out to be a safe procedure. In the studied group of patients, the improvement was observed in terms of imaging, patients' perceptions of symptoms, and QoL outcomes. Therefore, the piezoelectric knife might be a valuable supporting tool in ESS in patients with CRS, although further observation is needed.
