Hi thanks for contacting HCM.

Noted here main problem is chronic inflammation of maxillary sinus...that is called maxillary sinusitis....

And nasal septum deviated....

So by these condition you can have repeated infection and it can lead to spread of infection to adjacent structure and can lead to meningitis like complication.
It can spread to eyes Also..

Breathing problem can also occur.
With chronic sinusitis local part erosion keep on increasing....

So yes repair is needed mainly for sinusitis functional endoscopic sinus surgery and for DNS septoplasty done....

Hope your concern solved..

Take care.
Dr.Parth
