“…Mucosal grafting showed promising results in two studies but lacked a suitable comparison group . Although stenting has not been shown historically to reduce the rate of postoperative stenosis, newer drug‐eluting stents may show promise. In a recent report, drug‐eluting stents reduced requirements for postoperative interventions in frontal sinus surgery .…”

“…Unfortunately, the parameters used to decide which procedure is preferred in cases of failure and why, were not addressed by the literature. Stents are rarely used after the EMLP, and they do not appear to reduce the rate of postoperative stenosis 15. Image‐guidance is preferred by most surgeons performing this operation, although its application has not been shown to improve outcomes 16.…”

“…However, there has been conflicting evidence on their effectiveness. 1305,1309 Controversy remains regarding their effectiveness, when they should be placed, duration of placement, and type of stent employed. 1308 Silastic stents have been associated with biofilm formation postoperatively, which maybe counterproductive in the treatment of CRS.…”
