چکیده

Frontal sinusitis after middle turbinate resection occurs because of stenosis of the frontal ostium by soft tissue scarring or residual bony fragments (which are pulled to the medial orbital wall by scar contracture). Standard endoscopic techniques cannot address this problem; however, revision endoscopic frontal sinusotomy with mucoperiosteal flap advancement (the frontal sinus rescue procedure) relieves this bony stenosis and incorporates a mucosal flap that minimizes postoperative stenosis.

Endoscopic frontal sinusotomy-preventing recurrence or a route to revision?

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The Messerklinger technique is an endoscopic approach to sinus surgery designed to be minimally invasive and preserve mucosa and therefore physiological function. More recently there have been advocates for more radical endoscopic approaches to the frontal sinus such as the modified Lothrop procedure. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of endoscopic frontal sin...

Computed tomographic staging and the fate of the dependent sinuses in revision endoscopic sinus surgery.

OBJECTIVES To determine the patterns of disease recurrence in chronic sinusitis and to examine the influence of surgical intervention on the presence or absence of disease among sinuses at the time of revision. DESIGN Retrospective review of case series in a 56-month period. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) scans at the initial surgery and at revision were staged using the Lund and Macka...

Randomized controlled trial: hybrid technique using balloon dilation of the frontal sinus drainage pathway.

BACKGROUND The objectives of this study were as follows: (1) to evaluate frontal sinus ostial patency following balloon dilation with the Ventera Sinus Dilation System, compared with frontal sinusotomy (Draf 2a); and (2) to compare mean blood loss and mean surgical time for frontal sinusotomy using balloon dilation compared with traditional surgical methods. METHODS A single blinded, randomiz...

Selecting the best approach to the frontal sinus.

The Messerklinger technique is an endoscopic approach to sinus surgery designed to be minimally invasive and preserve mucosa and hence physiological function. More recently there have been advocates for more radical endoscopic approaches to the frontal sinus such as the Modified Lothrop. This review discusses different approaches to frontal sinus surgery including any advantages and disadvantag...
