Abstract

Osteoplastic flap access to the frontal sinus remains a valuable approach for the treatment of benign and malignant lesions of the sinus and posterior table, as well as for sinus obliteration. Even in the age of endoscopic sinus surgery, frontal sinus obliteration remains a definitive procedure for control of severe frontal sinus disease. Obliteration is successful in 90% of cases, despite these patients having had multiple prior surgeries. We present techniques for safe elevation of an osteoplastic flap and effective methods of sinus obliteration. Management of complications is also discussed.
