“…Die Empfehlung einer routinemäßigen Anwendung und Begründung der BD anstelle der oben skizzierten endoskopischen Nasennebenhöhlenchirurgie lässt sich nach den bisher vorliegenden wissenschaftlichen Daten nicht rechtfertigen. Als allgemeiner Konsens kann gelten, dass die Ballondilatation in speziellen Fällen (Aerosinusitis, isolierte Sinusitis einzelner Nasennebenhöhlen, Intensivpatienten, "einfache" Revisionssituationen aufgrund umschriebener segelförmiger Narbenbildung), und insbesondere bei Stirnhöhlenerkrankungen indiziert sein kann [1067,1116,1132,1136]. Der konkrete Stellenwert der BD in der chirurgischen Therapie der CRS ist unklar.…”

Endonasal endoscopic sinus surgery is the standard procedure for surgery of most paranasal sinus diseases.Appropriate frame conditions provided, the respective procedures are safe and successful.These prerequisites encompass appropriate technical equipment, anatomical oriented surgical technique, proper patient selection, and individually adapted extent of surgery.The range of endonasal sinus operations has dramatically increased during the last 20 years and reaches from partial uncinectomy to pansinusoperation with extended surgery of the frontal (Draf type III), maxillary (grade 3-4, medial maxillectomy, prelacrimal approach) and sphenoid sinus.In addition there are operations outside and beyond the paranasal sinuses. The development of surgical technique is still constantly evolving.This article gives a comprehensive review on the most recent state of the art in endoscopic sinus surgery according to the literature with the following aspects: principles and fundamentals, surgical techniques, indications, outcome, postoperative care, nasal packing and stents, technical equipment.

A case of balloon frontal sinuplasty in a 12 year old male with intracranial abscess from acute sinusitis is presented. The patient experienced photophobia, fever, headache, nausea and vomiting. Frontal sinusitis with intracranial abscess was diagnosed on imaging. The patient was taken to the operating room for drainage with left frontal balloon sinuplasty. The patient showed immediate clinical improvement, did not suffer from any complications of surgery and was further managed with long term intravenous antibiotics. We believe that balloon frontal sinuplasty is potentially safe and effective in the treatment of complicated acute frontal sinus obstruction in children.

“…Accessing the frontal sinus in an acutely infected field is of significantly greater difficulty than in the setting of chronic inflammation. To date, seven patients have been reported in the adult population with successful management of acute frontal sinusitis with balloon sinus dilation . One case report has previously been published reporting the use of balloon sinus dilation in pediatric acute frontal sinusitis complicated by intracranial abscess …”

Background/Objective: Complicated acute rhinosinusitis in the pediatric population is an uncommon problem that may affect the orbit or brain and is life-threatening.This condition requires surgical intervention with endoscopic sinus surgery for source control, and prior studies have demonstrated the safety of balloon sinuplasty in chronic frontal sinusitis.Methods/Results: We present our approach with a balloon sinus dilation hybrid procedure to resolve four distinct types of complicated acute frontal sinusitis in pediatric patients, including intracranial manifestations, intraorbital complications, and recurrent disease. All four patients were able to be managed operatively with frontal balloon sinuplasty. Conclusions:Prior efficacy has been demonstrated for chronic frontal sinusitis in the pediatric population. We demonstrate that frontal balloon sinuplasty is also feasible in the proper clinical setting for acute frontal sinusitis, even in the presence of regional complications or recurrent disease.
