    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Plastic Surgery

    Background:

    • Paranasal sinus surgery has seen recent advancements beyond inflammatory disease management.
    • Focus has shifted towards treating trauma and neoplasia.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review recent advances in paranasal sinus surgery for trauma and neoplasia.
    • To highlight surgical techniques and outcomes in complex cases.

    Main Methods:

    • Discussion of cranialization of the frontal sinus for penetrating trauma.
    • Description of simultaneous en bloc resection in craniofacial malignancies.
    • Review of optic nerve decompression techniques for orbital apex fractures.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Frontal sinus cranialization preserves forehead contour and ablates the sinus cavity.
  • Craniofacial surgery for paranasal sinus malignancies yields 50% five-year survival rates.
  • Transethmoidal sphenoidal decompression offers excellent access for optic nerve decompression.

    • Conclusions:

    • Paranasal sinus surgery techniques have evolved significantly for trauma and cancer.
    • Advanced surgical approaches improve patient survival and functional outcomes.
    • Management of complex cases, including cavernous sinus involvement and optic nerve decompression, is feasible with careful planning.
