JYRI MYLLER Middle Meatal Antrostomy in Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
Background: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is an inflammation of the nose and paranasal sinuses lasting more than 12 weeks. It is diagnosed by typical symptoms and/or a computed tomography (CT) scan and/or endoscopic changes. In a recent study the prevalence of CRS in the European population was found to be 10.9%. After failure of maximal conservative therapy, endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) aims ...
متن کاملEndoscopic middle meatal antrostomy in treatment of maxillary sinus mucoceles.
BACKGROUND/AIM Mucocele of a paranasal sinus is a benign non-neoplastic condition characterized by cystic expansion and distension of the sinus cavity by retained mucoid secretions. Etiology is unknown. The purpose of this study was to estimate the efficiency of the endoscopic middle meatal antrostomy (MMA) as a treatment modality in patients with maxillary sinus mucoceles. METHODS This retro...
متن کاملPosterior fontanelle approach for uncinectomy and middle meatal antrostomy in endoscopic sinus surgery.
INTRODUCTION The concept of functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) was established by Stammberger in 1986. When FESS is performed, the first encountered anatomical structure in the sinonasal tract is the uncinate process. Resection of the uncinate process is one of the important procedures in FESS, because the natural ostium of the maxillary sinus is located behind this process in most pati...
متن کاملEndoscopic polipectomy with middle meatal antrostomy for antrochoanal polyp treatment.
UNLABELLED Antrochoanal polyp (ACP) or Killian polyp is a benign nonatopic lesion of the maxillary sinus. Patients usually present nasal obstruction. Many surgical options for the treatment of ACPs have been suggested to minimize postoperative recurrence. The endoscopic nasal approach is a surgical option for maxillary intrasinusal resection of the polyp implantation through the maxillary ostiu...
متن کاملA double-blind randomised controlled trial of gloved versus ungloved merocel middle meatal spacers for endoscopic sinus surgery.
BACKGROUND Middle meatal spacers are commonly used following endoscopic sinus surgery to prevent post-operative bleeding and lateralization of the middle turbinates. The effects of nasal packing on post-operative sinonasal mucosal healing remain unknown in humans. OBJECTIVE This study aims to compare the histopathalogical effects of Merocel and Merocel covered with a finger glove on mucosal h...
