Area of Science:

  • Otolaryngology
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery

Background:

  • Endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery (EESS) is the established standard for treating paranasal sinus diseases.
  • The procedure's safety and success depend on technical equipment, surgical technique, patient selection, and tailored surgical extent.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive review of the current state of the art in EESS.
  • To cover principles, techniques, indications, outcomes, and postoperative care in EESS.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of recent advancements in EESS.
  • Analysis of surgical techniques, indications, and outcomes.

Main Results:

  • EESS has evolved significantly over the past two decades, with expanded applications from simple procedures to complex surgeries like Draf type III frontal sinusotomy.
  • Surgical techniques continue to advance, encompassing procedures beyond the paranasal sinuses.

Conclusions:

  • EESS remains a safe and successful standard of care for paranasal sinus diseases when performed under appropriate conditions.
  • Ongoing evolution in surgical techniques and technology promises further improvements in EESS.
