Outcome and Complications of Frontal Sinus Stenting: A Case Presentation and Literature Review
Case Reports in Otolaryngology, 2020 Introduction. Frontal sinus surgery remains challenging to manage because of its complex anatomy and narrow outflow tract. A number of studies suggest the success of frontal sinus stenting to reduce postoperative complications in endoscopic frontal sinus

The Laryngoscope, 2000 AbstractObjectives The formation of scar tissue, synechiae, or osteogenesis in the narrow frontal outflow tract after instrumentation of the frontal sinus has led to attempts to enlarge the frontal duct or stenting.Study Design Prospective pilot study.Results Sixty‐four Freeman frontal sinus stents were used to maintain patency in 46 patients.

Use of balloon catheter dilation vs. traditional endoscopic sinus surgery in management of light and severe chronic rhinosinusitis of the frontal sinus: a multicenter prospective randomized study [PDF]
, 2018 OBJECTIVE: Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) of the frontal sinus is a complex pathological condition and many surgical techniques were described to treat this area endoscopically, like traditional endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) and balloon catheter dilation (

Possible Skull Base Erosion After Prolonged Frontal Sinus Stenting [PDF]
, 2019 Frontal sinus stenting is widely used with the goal of maintaining nasofrontal duct patency after sinus surgery. The general recommendation is to leave stents in place for 6 months; however, prolonged stenting up to 6 years has been reported with no ...

Delayed endoscopic assisted percutaneous reduction of anterior table frontal sinus fractures
Otolaryngology Case Reports, 2021 Endoscopic approaches to the management of frontal sinus fractures continue to become more commonplace. Anterior table fractures amenable to reduction by these techniques are optimally managed within the first five to ten days to avoid fibrosis of the ...

Use of balloon catheter dilation and steroid-eluting stent in light and severe rhinosinusitis of frontal sinus: a multicenter retrospective randomized study [PDF]
, 2018 OBJECTIVE: Frontal sinus surgery has an increased rate of re-stenosis, if compared to other sinuses, that mainly depends on recurrent inflammation and abnormal scarring at the frontal recess; its reduction represents one of the keys of therapeutic ...

Seminars in Plastic Surgery, 2010 The management of frontal sinus fractures has changed over the past 20 years. Whereas the indications for an invasive procedure had been much broader in the past, it has become more common to treat these fractures conservatively, due to improved imaging modalities, the advent of endoscopic surgical treatment of the nasofrontal outflow tracts, and the ...
